Fact #50056
When:
Short story:
The Ford Motor Company, owned by Henry Ford, launches its newest
vehicle, The Model A in
the USA. The Model A will be widely regarded as much more
sophisticated improvement on the old Model T, which had earned the nickname The Tin Lizzie. The launch of the new vehicle will inspire
songwriter Walter O'Keefe to write the humourous song Henry's Made A Lady Out Of Lizzie, which will be recorded by
Irving Kaufman, The Happiness
Boys, The
Cliquot Club Eskimos and others.
