Description

Ford Motor Company, in celebration of its 50th anniversary, conducted narratives of those who personally worked with Henry Ford during its first 50 years. This is a narrative of Joseph Anderson's first-hand working relationship with Henry Ford in the 1920s and 1930s in Pequaming, Michigan (now a ghost town).

The original hard-bound book is on file in the Ford Motor Company archives. A hard-bound carbon copy (typewritten on onion-skin paper) was presented to the narrator, Joseph Anderson. I recreated this and added photos I found through the internet and FOMOCO archives as a gift to my FOMOCO manager, granddaughter of Mr. Anderson, during its 100th anniversary in 2003. She made copies for her relatives so they could each have an heirloom. The hard-bound copy was returned to her uncle.
