1930 Rolls-Royce Phantom I Newmarket Tourer

  • Coachwork by Brewster
  • Chassis Number: S484MR
Arthur M. Loew took delivery of this Phantom I Newmarket on June 3rd of 1930 in New York City, NY. As the only formal, fully open Brewster model, the Newmarket was a specialty for the ultra-wealthy. It was finished in black with clean black wheel discs and minimal chrome.

The next owner was D. Rosenheim in June of 1946. The following year, the car was in the care of an E.M. Wurzel. On March 30th of 1949, the Phantom I again changed hands to a New York resident, Judson H. Cox IV of Macy's department store fame. John W. Straus, owner of R.H. Macy & Co. subsequently purchased the car from Mr. Cox.

Mr. Straus owned the car for 62-years. Currently, the car is original and proudly displays its age.

In 2011, the car was brought to Pebble Beach and offered for sale at the Gooding & Company auction. It was estimated to sell for $85,000 - $125,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $99,000 inclusive of buyer's premium.
