Driven to Collect: The Automobile Gallery at Heritage Museums

Stunning Auto Collectibles

Want to see the most stunning display of automobiles in New England? No, it’s not at the Porsche dealership. Head to the Heritage Museums and Gardens on Cape Cod!


Their fascinating exhibit, Driven to Collect, is located in the Automobile Gallery, which is a reproduction of the Round Stone Barn at Hancock Shaker Village.


Antique & Classic Cars

Driven to Collect showcases Heritage’s permanent collection of antique and classic automobiles with a whole new look, plus a carload of interactive fun! Discover how Heritage founder Josiah K. Lilly, III collected American automobiles in much the same way as collectors assemble their collections. All have great passion for the objects they collect and some have a desire to share their collections with others. What Americans collect says a lot about our culture. What people of other cultures collect similarly defines their shared experiences.


Exclusive Collection

The exclusive auto collection features the fine cars in the Heritage collection, including a 1931 Duesenberg Model J Derham Tourster owned by Gary Cooper, a 1935 Ford Phaeton, a rare 1927 LaSalle, and a 1909 White Steam Car Model M owned by President Taft. In addition, the Collector’s Corner features autos on loan from private collectors. This year, auto collector David Geisinger will display his 1966 Volvo P1800, 1983 Land Rover Series III Stage One, and a 1955 Porsche Spyder!
