sample picture of 15/70/100 PS (or named 400K ?) http://auta5p.car.cz/muzea/atm_sinsheim_2004/sinsheim_343.htm http://mb-portal.net/html/modelle/190.htm http://www.favory-no1.com/eng/www/profil.cfm Some of 15/70/100 PS were imported to Japan at that time. And about twenty years after, some was converted to the Japanese-style funeral coach. |

I am not a Mercedes specialist but there are period pictures of a very similar ,or maybe the same car on home.all.net/~ Berliner-Ultrasonics/Mercedes htlm. It is a 1924 type 24/100/140 with an American double cowl-double windshield four door open touring aluminium body by Fleetwood.Indeed the body of this Mercedes in the Great Dictator looks quite un-German and may be of US origin. |

I reached, thank you! I've read that web page, and feel very similar but a little longer... As far I know, in the case of 24/100/140 space is made between fender and spare-tire. (due to length of engine) |

I searched my bookshelves and scanned. How about it? Mercedes 15/70/100 PS (1924-) This model seems to have both 'Mercedes' & 'Mercedes-Benz' names.  -- Last edit: 2006-03-03 19:18:32 |

I know this car well. It is a 1924 Mercedes 15/70/100. Coachwork by Murphy designed by W. Miller. Originally owned by Folger family and rented to studio for this film by Oliver Siberell. Later owned for many years by Sergio Franchi and sold recently. |

John Free, a renowned photographer made photos of this car back in 1974 when Oliver Siberell was the owner. John Free tells a suspenseful story describing how he got acces to the car. Video was recorded and posted to YouTube in 2019. “1924 Mercedes-Benz Supercharged Aluminum Murphy Body” Here’s the link to the YouTube video: https://youtu.be/XlRv0SFUTO4 -- Last edit: 2019-08-20 19:44:54 |
