I too, have never noticed that little loop-de-loop on the letter F of the Ford logo. (I've owned Fords for the last 25 years or so). So I googled "History of Ford Motor Co." and then clicked on the "images" icon up at the top of the google page. One of the pages has Ford logo images dating back to the very beginning. That "loop" on the letter F dates back to 1912.Posted by Patient (here)
Here is something...
I do not recall the Ford logo as having that loop on the "F".
Although I do believe the Mandela effect is a real possibility, we have to be careful that things we ascribe to the Mandela effect isn't just, (as TomKat mentioned above), faulty memory, or simply not noticing something that has always been there.
There has been many, many times that I would walk, or drive down a street that I've travelled hundreds of times. Then one day, I notice something I've never seen before. Something plainly obvious. How could I possibly not have seen that before? Is it Mandela effect? Did I slip into a parallel universe? Was I so inattentive that the object didn't register in my brain? ........
I'm not saying there is no such thing as the Mandela effect, parallel universes, and other things. But we have to accept that at least some of the time, it's due to us just being a fallible human being.
