The Marquette was launched by the Buick Division of General Motors as a sister make in the 1930 model year. In the GM food chain, the Marquette ranked just below Buick and just above Oldsmobile. The Marquette arrived in dealer showrooms on June 1, 1929, and many of the early cars - including the one shown in this photograph - were registered as 1929 models. Six models of the Series 30 (Phaeton, Sport Roadster, Coupe, Business Coupe, 2-Door Sedan, and Four-Door Sedan) were built by Buick during the brief (1929-31) run of the Marquette brand.

Photographed at the McLean County Antique Auto Club Show held on the grounds of the David Davis Mansion in Bloomington, Illinois on August 7, 2010.
