FDR's Ford
Roosevelt's 1936 Ford "Phaeton"
This color photo postcard depicts Franklin D. Roosevelt's 1936 Ford "Phaeton", with special hand controls., a classic deep blue convertible car displayed in the lower level of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library and Museum, as evidenced by the polished wooden floor and the structured lighting above. The vehicle, seemingly from a bygone era, features a sleek design with chrome accents and white-walled tires. Its doors are open, inviting a closer look, while a backdrop of a serene forest scene adds a contrasting natural element to the display.
