J505 I think you are dead on . 236 was sold new in Chicago but it was 1930 a few years earlier still could be but it would take some digging . R

My guess would be J-505, which was delivered new in Chicago, but that's just a guess.

Depending on the number of 1932 Super Eight Packard Dietrich Convertible Victorias were made in the Custom series that car may exist as well - recently written up in the CCCA article regarding a 1932 Custom Stationary Coupe.

What is the history of the Duesenberg Derham Convertible Sedan ?

I believe the disappearing-top Murphy convertible coupe is J-236, which still exists; Randy may be able to confirm or deny. The Cadillac V-16 in the back right survives, as well.
