Ford V-8 1936

Original 1936 Swedish Ford V-8 Advertising Poster
A striking piece of vintage automotive advertising, this original 1936 poster was printed in Sweden to promote the success and innovation of Henry Ford’s V-8 engine.

The headline boldly states a quote from Henry Ford in 1933:
“V-8:an är framtidsvagnen för flertalet av Amerikas bilförare”
(“The V-8 is the future car for most of America's drivers”)

The poster highlights the impressive sales growth of the Ford V-8 in the United States, with figures from 1932 to 1935:

• 1932 – 154,955
• 1933 – 342,569
• 1934 – 673,197
• 1935 – 1,064,118

It proudly notes that in 1935, the Ford V-8 led total vehicle registrations in the U.S. across passenger cars, trucks, and vans.

Bold, clean typography in deep burgundy and golden yellow makes for high visual impact, complemented by vibrant ink that remains fresh. The poster encourages test-driving the latest 1936 V-8 model:
“Ni inbjudes provköra den bästa och mest ekonomiska Ford som byggts – Ford V-8 1936”
("You are invited to test drive the best and most economical Ford ever built – the 1936 Ford V-8")

Very good overall condition with vivid colors. Minor small edge tears, but no significant damage. A fantastic historical piece celebrating Ford's global automotive influence.
