This picture and the following information on this photo provided by notable Packard historian Jim Pearsall:
"Subsequent to Mrs. Packard?s ownership the car later was owned by a funeral parlor in Warren, and I suspect that?s the original source of the photo. It was published many years ago in an article in ?Cars and Parts,? although I don?t recall who wrote the article, possibly Hugo Pfau."
