Scope and Content

Drawer Y89 is part of the Philadelphia Free Library collection. Per agreement, when the library decided to remove the donated sales literature collection, the items had to go to a Pennsylvania library or museum. The Simeone Museum shared the collection with the AACA Library. This image is being used to represent the sales literature items in Y89. While the drawer is mostly sales literature, other items may be found in the files, like photographs and articles about the company. The cabinet contains the following companies: Mercury 1939 - 1942 Mercury 1946 - 1955 Mercury 1956 - 1962 Mercury 1963 - 1966 Mercury 1965 Mercury 1966 Mercury 1967 Mercury 1968 Mercury 1969 Mercury 1970 Mercury 1970 - 1973 Mercury 1974 - 1977 Mercury 1978 - 1983 Mercury 1984 - 1986 Mercury 1987 Mercury 1994 Press Releases Mercury 1996 - Mercury - Canada Mercury - Snowmobile Mercury - Switzerland Mercury Cycle Cars
