Isotta-Fraschini was founded in 1899 by Cesare Isotta and Vincenzo Fraschini.
The first car was first shown in 1903. Isotta-Fraschini became famous for its large
and luxury cars in the 1920s/1930s. These cars were comparable to the
Rolls-Royce and Hispano-Suize in that time.

Pictures taken at the "2009 and 2010 Technoclassica" in Essen, Germany

engine no. 1553, chassis no. 1485, this car is believed to be part of the New York Auto Show in 1929.
