Default Some Are Reading...

Sorry, should be Summer reading, got these two books the other day from the MTFCA.

The RH book Henry's Attic by Ford Bryan is a great book if you have been or going to the Henry Ford Musem. If you have been it a great reference of the origination and story behind the various items on display when you did the walk through.

If you have not been and you should put it on the to-do list, it's a great preview of the articles donated and on display.

The LH book employee badges, ID's passes & permits is a neat publication for Ford badge collectors. I have no more room for another vehicle so this will be my next Ford memorabilia venture.

The badge book answers a lot of questions.

If you just got the Ford Employee Badge book (printed 2015) you have no doubt missed out on the 6+ updates that were sent out to those that ordered it from the Early Ford V-8 Foundation and Museum. They were the ones that worked with the author (rest in peace) once it was printed to get it out to Fordophiles.
They may still have the updates available.

I contributed to the book with much of the AUSTRALIAN material printed in the book but never heard of any updates. I only have the original printed book ! Regards, Kevin.

Thanks for reviving this thread, again a great resource of information and where there's no more room currently in the garage for a vehicle it's only natural to start a Ford badge collection

Thanks Kevin I see you there in the additional members list of the preface. My copy is a third printing of the first edition will all the appendix.
