<p>[QUOTE="Rabone, post: 319866, member: 1515"]You know, looking at this made me think about marketing, and how things at one point in time sound and look like such a good idea, but later they have that "...What were we thinking?" look. Take the Ford logo that is tilted inside the 100 on both the printed brochure and in the token. When it got approved I will bet they thought it looked really modern or retro, whatever retro really is. Now, just 5 years later it looks, well, stupid.</p><p>My father retired from Ford Motor Company and the UAW. I need to ask him if he has this brochure and token around somewhere.</p><p>Oh, and Stainless, if you are a young man, hold on to this. It will be worth something in your lifetime. Automotive memorabilia is a HUGE business in this country. And when I say worth something, I am talking about "You are kidding right, it is worth how much again...?" in 25 to 40 years.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
