Looks like it should be the logo for a line of feminine hygiene products.

The "G" looks too much like the Goodwill logo.

That almost wasn't the case.
In 1966, Henry Ford II decided that he wanted to modernize the Ford Motor Company's identity, so he commissioned famed graphic designer Paul Rand (who created the iconic logos for IBM, the ABC Network, UPS, Westinghouse, and many others) to create a new logo for Ford.
This is what he came up with:

Ultimately, Hank The Deuce rejected Rand's proposal and decided to keep the iconic Blue Oval.
