Comet Neon Dealer Sigh
This is like the Holy Grail of Comet Memorabilia!
This sign origionally hung in the Strieter Lincoln-Mercury dealership in Davenport Iowa. Strieter had been in business since 1916 and is one of only two origional Lincoln-Mercury dealerships in the nation.
Thanks to my friend Dan for giving me the chance to own this rare item! |
Bobbing Head Dog
A lot of people had these little bobbing head dogs in the back windoes of their cars during the 60s.
These were the origional bobble heads!. |
1961 Comet Accessories
This is a great pamplet showing accessories you could add to your comet, or as the phamplet says, "Add to your motoring pleasure". I have added a few of the pages inside the phamplet below. |
Here are the pages for optional air and locking gas cap. |
What a choice! Seat-belts or an Antenna!. |
1961 Comet Give Away
This looks like a way for dealers to get people into the show room. It is a 50 car give away. 50 Comets and 50 Mercurys. Again an example of Comets not being under the Mercury line of cars. |
Sticker Shock!
This is a replica of what my window sticker would have looked like. I took a picture of a 61 wagon sticker and changed it to show my information.. |
Lincoln Mercury Comet Towel!
This is Lincoln Mercury Comet shop towel that has the names and logos for all three devisions. It was given out by B and R Motor Sales in New Castle, PA. The funny thing about this towel is that the Comet logo is upsidedown!. |
1961 Rhode Island Plate
I picked up this 1961 Rhode Island License plate that is in great condition. Really makes the car look great! |
