Edsels were manufactured by the Ford Motor Company for model years 1958 through 1960. Named after Henry Ford’s son, Edsels were introduced amid considerable publicity on "E Day", September 4, 1957. Ford had over $400 million (well over $4 billion in 21st century dollars) invested in the Edsel's development, advertising and launch, which included a yearlong teaser campaign leading consumers to believe that Edsels were the cars of the future – an expectation they failed to meet. It was also promoted by a top-rated television special, The Edsel Show, on October 13, but the promotional effort was not enough to counter the adverse initial public reaction to Edsel styling and unconventional build.
