Roderick M. Blood car collection

I am restoring a 1932 Light Eight sedan that was once owned by Roderick M. Blood of Newton, Massachusetts. Upon Mr. Blood's death in 1966 the car was sold at auction to the Harrah's Auto Collection in Reno, Nevada where it was on display from 1966 till 1969. I have a copy of the documented history of the car while it was owned by Harrah (provided to me by the National Auto Museum in Reno), that confirms that the car was purchased from the Blood estate. Therefore, I am trying to find out any information I can for the time period when it was part of Rod Blood's car collection. Is there any place that has information on the Blood collection, maybe photos or a list of cars that once belonged to the collection? Were there any records of the Blood collection that may still exist at an auto museum library today? Any information you may have, or if you can point me in the right direction for my search, would be most helpful and greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
RTunes32

Thank you for the invitation but, I have already entered my car in the Packard Info Registry under the 9th Series. Thanks for the reminder though. We need more participation in the registry to keep the history of the marque alive.

Randy. My apologies for failing to locate your '32 Light Eight Sedan in the Registry. Reason being your Forum Name has changed from RTunes32 to Randy Looney.
And the greater participation in the Registry the better!
