The year 1938 was a recession year, and the auto industry suffered. Lincoln-Zephyr sales, which had neared 30,000 in 1937, fell by a third. The convertible sedan, in its first year, managed only 461 units, besting only the town limousine, which was a four-door sedan with a division partition creating a separate chauffeur’s compartment. Viewed in context, however, this falloff in sales was less severe than that of the comparable Packard, but nevertheless, renders the convertible sedan extremely rare. It is an icon of thirties modernism, offered in expertly restored condition.
