Error in latest Vintage Ford

On page 11, the top photo incorrectly dates the cars as coming from a 1919 catalog. That is impossible, as two of those models were discontinued by that time! Those are all early 1917 models.

That’s a town car on the left, isn’t it? I’m not an expert on those. And thatsa coupelet on the right. Yeah, I thought ‘18 was the last year for those. But the centerdoor in the middle sure looks like my ‘19. It doesn’t appear to have Cowl lamps like the coupelet tho’.
I don’t know why I turned out this way. My parents were decent people.

Larry,
I think it is a misprint.
The subject was discussed on the Forum when Susan reopened the Museum.

Sorry it was my typo. Ford Catalog that Rich used was 1917 not 1919.
Glad there’s always someone out there to catch an error. :shock:
