1931 Duesenberg Model J Derham Tourster
Sandwich, MA
This auto was once owned by the actor Gary Cooper and cost about $14,000 back in the day when the average annual income was only $1388 and the price of gas was only $0.17/gal.
Coop had a great sense of style, and could afford the car. I've seem a number of photos of this car, but had not noted the flamboyant colors. This car was made early in the depression era.
