The car pictured in this photograph was a 1929 Chrysler 75 and sold new for around $1500 at the time. That would equal about $24,000 today.
The $100 asking price after the crash would be somewhere about $1600 today.
Walter Thornton (pictured) recovered quickly after the stock crash and started a modeling agency in 1929. As the Walter Thornton Modeling Agency grew, it was considered one of the "Big Three" and one of the largest model agencies in the United States. The agency was known for its World War II era pin-up girls.
