Default Re: 32 5W rear window roll down

This '33 3w has its roll-down w/ Henry's 'safety glass'; i.e., two sheets of plate glass; i.e., Ford Safety Glass Company glass; its clear material glued between the two sheets; termed 'shatter-proof' in Ford ads. (Do read why Henry created his Ford Safety Glass Company because of an accident he had in 1931 during his proud demonstration of the new '31 Model A.

The safety glass company and its building was separate and apart from Ford with employees paid by Ford Glass, although neighboring on Ford property in Dearborn.

After creating the safety glass company, realizing that he was thee only auto glass maker in the world, he supplied the safety glass for any and all auto makers on the planet.
