Scope and content
Two unidentified men speak into a radio microphone for station KMO on January 5, 1940. On this date, representatives of the Ford Motor Company met with local reporters and car dealers to show them the official log book that they were keeping on their Mercury "economy car" and its mileage and gas usage. The car is parked at 916 Broadway in front of the Beverly Theater. The two men standing behind and to the left are Ford dealers Tommy Mallon, left, and Leon Titus. (T. Times 1/6/1940 p.8)
