The Henry Ford
Dearborn, MI, United States

Henry Ford's Model T was the first successful "world car"--a car that could be sold around the world with only minor modifications to its basic platform and parts. This advertising sign boasts the universal appeal of a car made and sold not only in the United States but also in South America, Europe, southern and eastern Asia, and Australia.
