1930 Pierce-Arrow Model B


The Design of the Pierce Arrow
Founded in 1901 by former birdcage builder George N. Pierce, the Pierce Motor Company of Buffalo, NY was first known for producing some of the most elegant, massive, and reliable automobiles ever built. The company then became a pioneer in the use of aluminum to build automobiles, as well as in the development of power brakes. Perhaps the most famous Pierce-Arrow feature is the fender-mounted headlamp, introduced in 1913. The 1930 Model B had all the luxurious detail and reliability of its predecessors. The sporty two-door Convertible Coupe version was particularly attractive with wire spoke wheels, chrome accents, a functioning rumble seat, and the signature Pierce-Arrow hood ornament. Unfortunately for Pierce-Arrow enthusiasts the company would struggle after the Great Depression and was eventually sold. Nonetheless, there is no debating the stamp of excellence and innovation firmly planted on the American automobile industry by the legendary Pierce-Arrow.
