    1. Ford didn't, his son in law did. They used Ford's immense distribution network to sell them. You'll find a LOT in the 57,000 posts in the archives, including the charcoal process https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2019/05/the-henry-ford-manufacturing-principle.html

  2. That fireman on the right looks like former military survive from his stance. Rest look like they are bored at standing there. Just my thoughts and we all know what that's worth.
