Addendum
Please note that this lot is titled as a 1934.
Phantom II number 150PY was bodied by the famous old London coachbuilders Windovers as a handsomely proportioned, elegant sedanca de ville, with long, flowing fenders; close-coupled doors; and a molded beltline, sitting off a two-tone color scheme, making it unusually attractive and sporty compared to other formal Rolls-Royces of its era.
The car was delivered in January 1934 to G.E. Philcox of Stone Court, Staplefield, via London dealers Caffyns, as noted on its original production paperwork. Following four intervening British owners, it was mechanically restored and exported from England to the U.S. in 1962 by H. Louis Moore of State College, Pennsylvania, who sold it in 1967 to Dr. James Stickley, the well-known Rolls-Royce expert, historian, and collector. Dr. Stickley sold the Phantom II two years later to Albert G. Pabst of Dallas, who maintained the car until 1984 before selling it to Gordon Dysart, also of Dallas. Jay and Berta Leon acquired it two years thereafter, just in time for Christmas of 1986.
Restored beautifully, the Rolls-Royce was featured in Beverly Rae Kimes’ book, The Classic Car, in 1990. It was exhibited in Classic Car Club of America judging through the 1990s, achieving Senior badge no. 2075 in 1997. In 2001, it appeared at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, where it received the Lucius Beebe Trophy for Most Elegant Rolls-Royce, to Bertha Leon-Hackney’s considerable delight. Today the restoration appears nearly fresh and crisp in its details, with beautiful fit and finish evident throughout, especially in the pleated wool upholstery and superb woodwork of the rear compartment; it records 11,315 km.
Accompanying the car is an original handbook for the model, as well as copies of its build sheets and other documentation from its Leon-Hackney ownership, detailing its specifications and confirming that it retains its original engine.
Among the finest restorations in this collection, this lovely Phantom II radiates subtle elegance and class.
