  • 29-44 Roadster: Jacob Rheuben Erich (aka: " Pecos Bil"; aka: Jack Earle) the biggest man in Texas seen beside the then latest 1929 Buick, standing outside a local El Paso, TX Buick dealership. The roadster has the optional Mercury Boy Radiator cap. Note: 2 cars in right hand window both appear to be 1929 Buick Close-Coupled Sedans with Artillery Wood Wheels. Circa late 1928.
  • 29-54CCX - Not a very clear photo but this is a 1929-54CCX around 1951/52 during a tour of the south-west (Western Australia). The owners had just purchased the car due to being posted as a school headmaster in the country in 1951 and wanted a car "with legs" for the long country drives. The caravan was hand made by the owners. Advertisements, in 1954, show the car & caravan for sale as a pair, at the town of Merredin, after they were traded in on an Austin van.
  • 1929 Buick Hearse with early rad cap and, I think, hubcaps. Lettering seems to be: F ? Watts, Latri?? Windshield appears to be from an open car - likely a 29-25 touring as there appears to be no rod between front aprons.

  • Photo sent by Norm McKendry (54CC). Howard Buick’s display at the San Francisco Auto Show (Jan.26 - Feb. 2,1929). Noteworthy are: 1) Many cars have the windwing option (assume W/W’s were put on by Howard’s SF dealership). 2) Note the chassis and Fisher body displays in the background. 3) The model 44 (at the center rear) has an unusual light (tan?) sidemount and boot cover which I was black on all models. 4) All cars have the star hubcaps and flip-top rad cap  Both late. 5) Literature on a table near the centre. 6) Since the radiator emblems were discontinued on Sept. 16, '28, the ends were removed and the center portion attached to the fern stands in the foreground. 7) There are 14 out of 19 Buicks models in the photo and presumably more to the left. 8) The cars are outfitted with the new tread Goodrich Silvertown tires.
