    Not really an attic find i knew they were up there but just got them down when putting away Xmas stuff

    My Dad got these from his old Boss who had a auto repair shop and his Father ran a large Auto and truck shop in Pasadena in the early 1900"s.

    First Ford service bulletins June 1932- Dec 1933 In original Binder

    then looking through the service bulletins some of them are actually "Ford Sales Bulletins sent out every week to Dealers as news letters about the ford products

    Cool find! I've got a similar one, though lacking the cool grill shell on the cover, but it has service bulletins from '32 to around '48 in it. They are fun to flip through.
