was a Duesenberg dealer in town and they had proudly painted the side of the building with the price of this fabulous car. \u00a0 It was a plumbing supply place in recent memory and they kept re-painting the sign as it faded. \u00a0But now the entire building was gone, replaced when I wasn&#8217;t looking.<\/p>\n<p><a
