Henry Ford seated on his Quadricycle

The Ford Quadricycle was the first vehicle developed by Henry Ford. It was a
simple frame with an ethanol-powered engine and four bicycle wheels driven
by a chain.The two cylinder engine could produce 4 horsepower with a two
gear transmission, one for 10 mph and the second for 20 mph.

On the morning of Thursday, June 4, 1896, Henry Ford put the finishing
touches on his motor car in his tiny workshop behind his home and took
it out for a test drive. The success of that little vehicle led to the founding
of the Henry Ford Company which later became the Ford Motor Company
in 1903.

Johnny Mercer

The Capitol Records Company was founded by songwriter Johnny
Mercer in 1942, with the financial help of fellow songwriter and film
producer Buddy DeSylva and businessman Glenn Wallichs, owner
of Music City which was the largest record store in Los Angeles at
the time. The new company opened its first office in a second-floor
room south of Sunset Boulevard.

As of 2011, Capitol Records is now operating in New York City as
part of Capitol Music Group. The former headquarters building,
the Capitol Tower, is a major landmark located near the corner
of Hollywood and Vine and is owned solely by EMI Music.
