1949, 1950, 1951 Mercury Pictures

Jim was such a great curator for the Hirohata.

 

WOW, impactful video!!!

 

This is just killer paint..........Look carefully at the trunk, you can see a Yellow Car in the reflection of the Green paint!!!!

 

Another great episode!

 

Here's the one we just sold. It and a few others went on a transport to Arizona.

I've always loved that Merc. Thanks for sharing the pics...

 

saw it listed for sale in Charlotte, NC

 

Over half of the Mercs on these 90 pages are awful! square headlights, missing or painted bumpers, really bad "Over-chopped" tops, flames, non Merc rear windows, awful paint colors, stupid interiors, etc. My vote is "Everybody that buys a 49 to 51 Merc has to attend College Art Classes before they can buy a car. 90 pages and within that, 60 pages of ruined cars. There, I finally got it off my chest!

 

Art is interpretive..........So, let see yours!!!
