Re: 1929 Dealer Supplement
Brad, Thank You for posting that copy of the Ford Dealer Supplement. I have never seen those supplements before nor the expanded photo of the S&L delivery. I am thinking there were multiple deliveries to reach the 125 figure. Looks to be around 30 units there on or before 7/15/29. I would be interested to know when the remaining units were delivered. This probably rules out my car as it was actually produced the first week of September 1929. It was a long shot to say the least! I uploaded some interesting articles from the day regarding these units. The winter scene with unit parked in front of Al Capone's home 72nd & Prairie Chicago 1930 (Maybe checking to see if he had filed his income tax). The last one is of my car taken somewhat recently. The Capone Cadillac mentions being painted green to match the CPD cars of the time, seems to contradict the the Ford Supplement and Chicago Tribune articles from 1929. John
