By the way, when I was a TV art director I got a call from our production director asking me to come to the studio. His words, “You’ve got to see this!” I walked in on a commercial shoot, the star of which was a 1934 Duesenberg dual-cowl phaeton. It was big, gorgeous, and the driver/owner – a man in his 70s – was standing near by. I asked if he trailered it to our TV station. He replied, “No, I drive it everywhere. I usually take it out for a spin about once a week.” Lucky man(!)

It’s amazing – and beautiful – what someone with a computer and ‘cut and paste’ can do with a photograph. The Duesenberg crop is especially nice. I’d like to see what the whole car looked like.
