If you love Model A Fords, then one of the things that might interest
you is collecting things that were used in that time period. Since Model
A Fords were only produced between 1928 and 1931, it is a quest to find
things which qualify. Many of us love to browse through antique stores
searching for books, toys, clothing, jewelry, anything that would
qualify. The Model A Ford Club of
America (MAFCA) has done much of the research for you if you are
interested. They have a nice thick book entitled Fashion Guidelines.
One of the frequently asked questions among club antiquers is, "Do
you think this is era?" Some things are dated very clearly, for instance
a coin or a book. I found a U.S.
Passport which was issued June 19, 1928. No one can argue that it is
not era.
Many times your own family is the best place to get era items. I have
my grandmother's
Whiting & Davis Co. mesh bag. But is it era? I am satisfied that it
is. - Rebecca Jordan
