This Marmon was built for Alta R. Prentice, John D. Rockefeller's youngest daughter, as a gift from her husband, Ezra R. Prentice. He ordered two special Marmon Sixteens in 1932 both built on 154-inch chassis (up from the standard 145) with Waterhouse coachwork – a 4-door convertible sedan and a 4-door phaeton. The price tag was a staggering $6,800.00 . . . each. This is the remaining survivor of the two vehicles. Alta kept the car until her passing in 1962 when legendary collector Bill Harrah purchased the car at the estate auction. While in his possession, the car was featured in the 1970 Robert DeNiro film, Bloody Mama. Today, the car shows just 55,000 miles from new, much of that accumulated during tours with its third owner.
