I am familiar with the Mini Marque Packard, although I still need to acquire one. The Ertl Packard I've not seen before.

Quite a difference in the price range. The 34 is really nice.   I found the Mini Marque at

I have had the Mini Marque in red for many years but have never seen the Ertl. Great pictures of two nice models.

Four older Packard models, generally smaller than 1:43 in scale, three not often seen today, and starting with one more look at that early (circa 1990) Ertl, especially the seating in picture #2.  (Click on picture for enlargement.)

This is my only DGM model and I know very little of that early firm. Enjoy!   David H

Great Packards ! I got my '30 Ertl in silver originally from Dick Browne at one of the Countryside shows.

They are all beautiful Packard models. I am looking at options for the older Mini Marque 43 issue. I also have the GLM '30 Harv pictures and the '29 Ralf has shown. Here's one not yet shown here in my collection.

Here's a relatively recent acquisition to my Packards, a Graber bodied cabriolet.

It's a welcome addition!
