The historically significant V-8 introduced by Cadillac in 1915 would power the marque’s offerings for years to come, including this 1922 Cadillac Type 61 Four-Passenger Victoria. Its attractive bodywork deftly balances the upright, rather proper-looking enclosed cabin design so common in the early 1920s between a smoothed-over cowl and an elegantly tapered tail end. Notably, this was the first year Cadillac offered a nickel-plated grille surround and headlamps—a signal that the so-called Brass Era was truly over.
