About the Duesenberg SJ Clark Gable's Car Silver Red ERTL 1:18

TL;DR: ERTL's 1:18 diecast Duesenberg SJ recreates Clark Gable's silver and red example of America's most extravagant 1930s flagship. As a second documented Hollywood-owned SJ alongside Gary Cooper's, this model illustrates just how thoroughly the marque captured golden-age Hollywood's attention.

It says something about a manufacturer when more than one major Hollywood star chose to own the same model, and Duesenberg's SJ managed exactly that.

Diecast Detail on a Second Documented Hollywood SJ

Silver and red is a striking two-tone combination that flatters the SJ's long, exposed bonnet and open cockpit styling, giving ERTL's diecast build genuine visual drama distinct from a single-colour treatment. The car's proportions correctly reflect the SJ's enormous scale, a long wheelbase and dramatic bonnet housing a supercharged straight-eight engine, features that made this among the fastest and most technically sophisticated American cars available at the time. Getting that scale and the exposed supercharger exhaust pipes correct matters, since those details are exactly what separated the SJ from lesser Duesenberg models.

Two Stars, One Marque: A Genuine Hollywood Pattern

Clark Gable's ownership of a Duesenberg SJ, alongside Gary Cooper's separate example, reflects a genuine, well-documented pattern of golden-age Hollywood stars gravitating toward the same marque as the ultimate expression of automotive wealth. Displaying both cars together tells a more complete story than either model manages alone, showing that Duesenberg's reputation among 1930s celebrities was not a single anecdote but a recognised trend. For a collector building a Hollywood classics theme, pairing this Gable example with other documented celebrity Duesenbergs creates genuine historical depth.
