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.

Grandpa was a millwright at Duesenberg factory (building is full of artist's and architech's studios now) they let him drive cars on weekends before the coach work went on. Try to find pix of him courting grandma...with dusters, goggles, and gauntlets sitting on naked chasis and engine.

That would be really precious shot. Hope you can find it. Feel free to post it here if you do.

I love the looks and style of the car! It might have been classier if Gary Cooper had chosen a better
color combination. Thanks for the photos!
