1955 Ford Sedan: Vehicle for Family History

Collections Curator Matt Anderson presents the story of a 1955 Ford Sedan MHS acquired for the Minnesotas Greatest Generation exhibit. The car was purchased new, and then driven by three generations of the Bergan-Carr family before arriving in our collection. Oral history, family photos, and film of the St. Paul Ford plant add to the story.
