1930 Duesenberg Model J Derham Tourster once owned by Gary Cooper on display at Heritage Garden on Cape Cod.
Many other beautiful cars on display, but I think this is the well deserved center piece. In its day the 'Deusie' cost about ten times the average worker's annual salary.

That probably be my favorite also, and I think it's still worth 10 times the average salary.

That's a beautiful car, Phil.
I was wondering: is that "Tourster" or is it "Tourister"? I zoomed in everywhere I could but didn't see any reference to that.

The Museum lists it as 'Tourster'. There were only eight of them ever built.

Not far south from Notre Dame University is Auburn, IN. The Auburn Cord Duesenburg museum is easy to find in Auburn, it's the old Auburn manufacturing plant. You'll find several Duesenburgs, and even more Cords and Auburns. There is much more upstairs, I recall one line that had a 427 Cobra, a Ferrari, an XKE, etc. Bring your camera, they don't care if you use a flash. The docents love to talk about the cars, it's a fun time.
