Goodbye Mercury

Production of Mercury vehicles ended last week as Ford moved to trim the underperforming brand that had been starved of interesting products for some time.

As a coincidental send-off, a colleague brought in a bunch of antique Mercury and Ford brochures, some from the 1964 World's Fair in New York where the Ford Mustang was unveiled.

As a send-off here is a photo I snapped of these beautiful pamphlets.

Goodbye to Mercury, the brand named for the god of speed.
