Hello Eric,
In the fifties,I literaly fallen in love for Duesenberg in a show at Pittsburgh where was exposed the fantastic " Gretta Garbo " .
My first Duesenberg transformation I did was made in 1960 ( from a 1/24 monogram kit ).After several others bodies,I gone to the 1/43 scale.
From '64 to '72 I was employed in the Dinky Toys company as official model man.
After some jobs in the '70,I gone to do my personnal 1/43 miniature in series with my Elegance label, starting with a production of differents
marks of prestigious automobile ( Duesenberg is one of them ),then I go to do many Cadillac ( with the help of Yann Saunders for the documentation ),and Rolls Royce.
Now,at 82,retired but not stopped,I do some models as this Duesenberg,just for my pleasure ( and yours ).
