Festival set at Auburn
The community of Auburn is preparing eagerly for the 31st Annual Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Festival, the world’s greatest classic car show, held this Labor Day weekend, Friday tlirough Monday, Aug. 29 - Sept. 1. More than 200 Auburn, Cord and Duesenberg automobiles will be reunited in Auburn, “the home of the classics,” to enchant thousands of antique auto enthusiasts who return each year during the Labor Day holiday. Since 1956 the members of the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Club, those dedicated to preserving the automotive heritage, have organized what has become the largest reunion anywhere of these three consumate motorcars. The golden anniversary of the remarkable Cord Model 810, introduced by Auburn Automobile Company for 1936, will be honored according to the Festival theme, “The Year of the Cord 810.” The 1936 Cord’s styling, the start of a new episode in American automobile manufacture, was the work of designer Gordon Buehrig, who brought new form and vibrancy to the front-drive car. A revised version of an earlier Cord (the nation’s original front-drive production car, first seen by the public in 1929), the all-new Model 810 was excitingly innovative in style and engineering, suited to the elite motorists of a half century ago. Ultimately modern in every detail, and often termed “the car of the future,” the Cord exemplified the age of Art Deco. The Model 810 has gained increased stature through the years, recognized by automobile historians, authors and museums as a landmark in the twentieth century development of the motorcar. Record numbers of the Cord 810 are anticipated to attend the Festival, joining the Auburns, Cords and Duesenbergs from all regions of the United States in a return to the city of their creation to participate in a time-honored tradition. The center of activity during the Festival is the historic Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg

Museum, housed in the administration building of Auburn Automobile Company (1900-1937). Constructed in 1930, the building is a wonderful exhibit in itself, an architectural masterpiece of Art Deco style, listed in the National Register of Historic Places. One of the country’s finest automobile collections, including more than 140 vehicles from the 19th century to the present, is permanently on exhibit throughout the original factory showrooms, engineering department and experimental wing of this celebrated auto company. Other popular displays feature vintage clothing, antique radios and phonographs, the Chicago World’s Fair and automotive memorabilia from half a century past. Os special interest to car buffs is the 16th Annual Midwestern United States Collector Car Auction which each year secures hundreds of tantalizing cars for sale. Operated exclusively by Dean Kruse and associates of ITT Kruse International, the highlyreputed auction embraces every aspect of the automotive spectrum, with American and foreign models alike, from pioneer autobuggies to modem sports cars. Even for those not wishing to bid, the auction is a sensational show for spectators. Previous auctions have produced many a world record price, including $1 million for outstanding Duesenbergs, for some of the most beautifully-restored motor cars ever conceived. Seekers of automobile memorabilia or that hard-to-find antique car part will enjoy the lively swap meet next to the auction grounds.. The auction and swap meet take place at DeKalb High School, just north of Auburn on SR 427, Saturday, Aug. 30 - Monday, Sept. 1. A highlight each year is the magnificent Parade of Classics, free to the public. The pure artistry of rolling sculpture set in motion along Auburn’s attractive tree-lined streets creates a truly unforgettable experience. At the parade’s conclusion, each of these progressive automobiles is parked downtown, transforming Auburn’s picturesque court house square into a haven for ap-
preciative photographers. The parade begins at 1 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 30. The Tri Kappa Sorority will repeat its popular Antiques Show and Sale at DeKalb High School, Saturday, Aug. 30 - Monday, Sept. 1. Excursions above Auburn in a remarkable 1931 Stinson Trimotor airplane will be offered from Auburn-DeKalb Airport all weekend. The Auburn Business Association also repeats its crowd-pleasing Arts and Crafts Show, now a two-day event, on Auburn’s court house square, Sunday, Aug. 31 - Monday, Sept. 1. The Auburn Improvement Association will sponsor the annual Decorator Showcase in one of the community’s historic homes. Other events include the Tri Kappa Art Show at Eckhart Public Library, the Jaycee’s Historic Tours of Auburn, the RSVP Quilt Show, a reception for former employees of Auburn Automobile Company, and an Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Club Swap Meet. There’s the 11th Annual Hoosier A-C-D Tour, the 12th Annual A-C-D Museum Gala Anniversary Ball, and the 15th Annual Pro-Am Golf Tournament at Greenhurst Country Club. It’s a colorful, invigorating weekend which has gained a reputation as Indiana’s most talked-about festival, expressing meaningful Indiana history while rewarding visitors with lasting memories. Auburn is located in northeastern Indiana, 20 miles north of Fort Wayne and 35 miles south of the Indiana ToD Road, at the intersection of Interstate 1-69 and State Road 8.
