Look for this very Packard (and HRH) to be featured in an upcoming issue of The Packard Cormorant magazine...!

In view of the large quantity of chrome, don't miss the white Clipper convertible left hand side.

I think it's 22-23 series, not Clipper.

From what I can see it's a 22nd Series Super Eight Victora Convertible Coupe.

Maybe an early model with the painted bumper and - I think - painted headlight trim rings.

 I don't know if the nickname "Travelling-Lasse" had something to do with his Packards. The talk revolves around Lauri Kristian Relander, who had been the second president of Finland (1925–1931).  images sources #1 - wikipedia #2,3 - finna.fi license: CC-BY 4.0 caption: King Kristian X of Denmark and Iceland and President Relander on the steps of the Presidential Palace Click to enlarge!
