1916 Cadillac Carved-Panel Hearse

1916 Cadillac Carved-Panel Hearse by A. Giessel and Sons

According to our research, this is the oldest Cadillac hearse known to exist. The rare hand-carved coach features wide white wall tires, and wood spoke wheels. The year of 1916 was only Cadillac's second year using their new V-8 engine. The large center drapery panels can be easily removed, to reveal large beveled glass windows. This option allows the attending mourners to view the casket and flowers, during the funeral.
