Cords

Auburns, Cords, and Duesenbergs--perhaps the finest of American automobiles--were built in the factory behind this showroom until the marques collectively failed around the start of World War II. The factory's now a very fine museum. This photo, of a pair of Cord automobiles, was taken early in 1999 with my Nikon N90s.

I'm afraid that the ACD Museum's website, though pretty, is a bit of a disappointment. Despite that, I heartily recommend the museum; it's a fascinating place with truly delightful automobiles. It's in Auburn, Indiana; just follow the signs from I-69.
