In this case, however, it was Hollywood 'nouveau riche'. This is Greta Garbo's 1933 Duesenberg J Victoria 02. For someone who claimed "I want to be alone", this car certainly did not afford her anonymity.

Your pictures are FANTASTIC as always.  Even then this is one of those that must be seen in the flesh to really capture the color!  In person it’s almost Gem-like. A Sapphire blue

@phil-r I tracked down a picture of the 1:1 and, you're right, that blue is otherworldly.

Wow; I had no idea she collected Mint 1/24th diecast!  O H ! You mean the REAL car!

Great photos buddy! It may not be the same place you saw the 1:1 but here is a spread on her Duesy:  https://www.conceptcarz.com/profile/2789,13703/1933-duesenberg-model-j.aspx
