1930 Auburn Phaeton sedan 8-95 series
The Eckhart brothers, who took over a carriage business from their father, built the first Auburn automobiles (named after their home town of Auburn, Indiana) in 1900 when they realized the future would not be horse-drawn. Some reports say they sold none of the four cars they built that first year because they were overpriced at $800. Auburn designed and built some successful cars but they were in financial trouble after World War I.
They were taken over in 1919 by a group of Chicago businessmen headed by William Wrigley, Jr. of Wrigley Chewing Gum fame. In 1924, salesman E.L. Cord bought the company and the rest is history. The company became a part of his Auburn Cord Duesenberg empire, and built some of the most innovative and beautiful cars of the 1930s before falling victim to the Depression in 1937.
