The Pierce-Arrow Model 38 was powered by a six-cylinder engine displacing 415 cubic inches and rested on a platform that measured 134 inches. The company produced nearly 250 units.
This Open-Front French Brougham was one of the most expensive Model 38s offered for 1917. It was originally sold to F. Robert Greene in Boston and it remained in his family until it was acquired by Mr. Garganino. The next owner was D. Cameron Peck, followed by D. Cameron Peck and then Mark Ralston. In 1993, it was sold to Patrick Craig of Stockton, California who retained it until early 2004, when Harry Clark acquired it with the odometer showing only about 16,700 miles. The current owner acquired it in August 2005.
The car is painted in its original black paint. There is a blue brocade interior which is likewise completely original. There is a roll-up division window, jump seats, and roller window shades in the rear compartment.
In 2011, the car was offered for sale at the Hershey Auction presented by RM Auctions. The car was estimated to sell for $50,000 - $70,000. As bidding came to a close, the car was sold for the sum of $66,000 inclusive of the buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Dec 2011
