Though I'm not Sure how P , D, & S in any combination could Spell out FORD or I'm missing Something.

The Offer of 4 Dimes for a New Ford, May have been laughable IN 1916

If that were 4 Shiny New Merks from the Local Mint in Denver that year,
I'd bet they could almost buy a New Ford Today.
definitely a nice downpayment

The "Dr" must have been thinking of a free ford :laughing7:

4 dimes. I would settle for a stamp to mail a bill for four dimes.
 

The O would be for New Orleans... you could get a D for Denver but no F or R. That was certainly the point. “Not giving away cars here....” :)
