Ford Falcon - Black and white 9 1/2" x 13" ad that introduces the new Compact Car from Ford. The headline begins "Suppose you were designing a new Compact Car - would you think of all these things". The text wanders through the thought process about deciding about size and other factors and ends by mentioning some of the features that Ford feels will make the Falcon worth buying. The ad contains a four-panel comic strip with Charlie Brown and Lucy from the Peanuts comics. Charlie is saying to Lucy "I'd like to shake the hand of the man who designed the Falcon". He continues by musing "What taste, what imagination he has..." and repeats "I'd sure like to shake his hand!". An angry Lucy barks back "Did you ever consider it might be a woman?".

Falcon 13

1961
Ford Falcon - Black and white 5 1/4" x 13" ad for the '61 Falcon that starts off with a four-frame cartoon featuring Peanuts characters. In the first frame, Charlie is standing there talking to Linus and he says that "Falcon is not only America's lowest priced passenger car...". In the second frame he continues "it's priced as much as $505 less than the new-name compacts". In the third frame Charlie continues "Imagine! As much as $505 less than those new-name compacts!". In the last frame, Linus finally answers by saying simply "They must feel awful!". The test of the ad starts off by saying "Well, Linus, $505 is an awful lot more to pay - especially when you don't have to. And you don't have to! After all, Falcon has everything the new high-priced compacts have - plus a few tricks of its own. Falcon seats 6 people in the same comfort as the costliest compacts. But here's the twist - outside, there just too big, too heavy to handle and park as easily as Falcon...or go up to 30 miles on a gallon like Falcon. Pay more? What for! Falcon has more of what you buy a compact for". December 12, 1960

Falcon 1

1961
Ford Falcon Black and white 10" x 13" ad for the Ford Compact Car. The top picture in the ad is a slightly out-of-focus picture of a semi hauling five covered cars down the other side of the highway and the headline under it says "The bigger the compact car field gets...". The next picture shows the tail end of that same semi and, on this side of the road, is a shiny Four Door Ford Falcon with the headline saying "...the better Falcon looks!". The text makes the claims of 30 miles on a gallon, 4,000 miles between oil changes while never needing to be waxed. It talks about the optional 170 Special Engine, the price lower than other low prices and warranties of 12,000 or 12 months, whichever comes first. There is a Charles Schultz drawing of Charlie Brown talking to Linus with Charlie sayig the same thing the headline does causing Linus to reply, "That's poetry". October 24, 1960

Falcon 5

1961
Ford Falcon - Black and white 5 1/2" x 13" ad that tries to alert the public that the Ford Falcon is "America's best-selling compact". The ad has a four frame cartoon showing Charlie Brown asking Linus "How can Falcon be priced as much as $505 less than those new compacts?". He continues to badger Linus with the need to know and poor Linus is only able to respond "Prestidigitation?". The text, with an overhead picture of a man getting into his Light-Colored Falcon, gives some figures about how much less it will cost to buy one and how much more you will get when you trade it in.

Falcon 6

1961
Ford Falcon - Black and white 9 3/4" x 13 1/4" ad that shows a 1961 Ford Falcon racing down a hill in the 2,000-mile Mobilgas Economy Run. The headline at the top of this ad says that "Economy is another reason why Falcon has won the Battle of the Compacts". The ad then says that "A new stock-model Falcon beat every car competing in every class of the 2,000-mile Mobilgas Economy Run from Los Angeles to Chicago. And the second place car, another Falcon of course, scored 31.6 M.P.G. for a Falcon-winning two-car average of 32.1 M.P.G. Yet championship economy will come as no surprise to the more than 600,000 Falcon owners. With them savings are an everyday affair. Find out all the reasons why Falcon is America's best loved compact". The lower headline said that "Falcon Wins Class A" and that "A Ford Fairlane Wins Class E".

Ford Falcon - Black and white 9" x 13" ad that reminds us of the Fuel Economy you will be receiving when you purchase a new Ford Falcon. There are two photos in this ad, the top on shows a group of people milling around so that you cannot see what is beyond them and the second shows them walking away so that you can see two parked Falcons with the words "MobilGas Economy Run" printed on the sides. The headline tells us that the "1st and 2nd place Mobilgas Economy Run drivers...reveal their secrets" and the text reveals that they both drove Falcons with standard transmissions. The text also claims that the Ford Falcon received the best gas mileage ever obtained by a 6 or 8 in the 25-year history of the Run. At the bottom right of the ad is a drawing of Lucy and Linus from Charlie Brown discussing the reactions of the other car manufacturers to their loss.

Ford Falcon - Black and white 5 1/4" x 13 1/2" ad for the 1962 Ford Falcon. At the top of the ad is a four-frame cartoon for Peanuts but this one is entirely Snoopy. In the first frame he is lying on his back on top of his dog house and he is thinking "It's happened. I'm no longer man's best friend! I've been superseded by a car. Falcon has taken my place". In the second frame, he has flipped over and is now lying on his belly and thinking "The way they're selling, there'll soon be more Falcons than dogs. I'm already beginning to feel unwanted". In the third frame, he is standing at the side of his dog house, preparing to jump into his water bowl and he thinks "Well, I'll show 'em. I'll drown myself". And, in the final frame, he is back lying on his back again, thinking "Just as soon as somebody fills my water dish!". The text says "Look at it this way, Snoopy - happy people make the very best masters, and Falcon knows many ways to make people happy! Falcon's improved engine makes them great gas economy - takes them 6,000 miles between oil changes, too. Falcon also offers comfortable room for 6 people - luggage and all. And it's still America's lowest priced 6-passenger car. Today, with over one million happy owners, Falcon is America's favorite compact! For happiness - and a Falcon - see your Ford dealer". Below this is a picture of a mother who has taken her two kids out on a snowy day to a frozen pond and she is trying to teach them to ice skate.

Ford Falcon Sports Futura - Full color 10" x 13" ad that introduces the New Falcon Sports Futura. There are a total of seven pictures in this ad that have something to do with the ultimate looks of this amazing car. The biggest picture shows a Light Blue Falcon with a darker vinyl top parked there while behind it is a three-piece band playing while an attractive young lady is "enjoying their music". There is another picture of a man playing with his drum sticks on a front wheel and another of the man playing the trombone stretching it out over both front seats. There are two with the jovial lady, one with her laying on the rear window of the car laughing as she holds a trumpet and the other has her standing in front of the car with a hat half-way over her face. This last picture also has a saying in it, "The lively ones come from Ford". The ad text indicates that "Here's a hot new number from the compact leader. The tempo starts fast with bucket seats, a console in between, carpeting and an optional 4-speed stick shift...hits a new high note with a stylish new Thunderbird roof (vinyl covered if you want)...then goes into the lively melody of an optional 170 Special Six. Economy with a flair is the Sports Futura idea: more gas savings...6,000 miles between oil changes...and a price below many standard compacts".

Falcon Squire - Full color 9 1/2" x 13" ad for the Quiet and Comfort that you will experience when traveling in this Ford Economy Station Wagon. There is a picture of early evening and a Blue Wood-Trimed Falcon Squire is parked in the driveway of a white two-story house. The mother has arrived at the front door with the suitcases and Daddy is holding stuffed animals and a sleepy child as he leaves the roomy back-end of the car. The text, which consists of the thoughts of the child, says "Daddy thinks I'm asleep. That's why he's making like our new '64 Falcon Squire. Real quiet, smooth and sure. But he doesn't have a new wider tread...or new longer springs...or a smoother ride or even a new '260' cu. in. V-8 power option. Actually he's not a very good Falcon Squire. But he's an awful good daddy." The ad also has a single drawing from Charles Schulz of Peanuts characters Charlie Brown and Lucy. Charlie is asking "If you added up all the money Falcon owners save on gas each year, what do you think it would equal?" Lucy, with a knowing smile, answers "Happiness Charlie Brown".
