The ‘Al Jolson’ Packard
Virtually unseen for nearly half a century, the sporting 1932 Packard Twin Six Individual Custom Convertible Sedan with coachwork by Dietrich, engine number 900229, was delivered new to famed American entertainer, Al Jolson, for the princely sum of $6,600. Born in Russia in the late 1880s, Jolson immigrated to America at the age of ten. With starring roles in ‘Mammy’ and ‘Swanee’ to his name, Jolson’s outstanding singing, dancing and acting skills earned him the nickname ‘The World’s Greatest Entertainer’, leading him to become one of the wealthiest men in Hollywood and in turn, affording him the opportunity to indulge his passion for fine automobiles, including this Packard Twin Six.
