ALBANY, N.Y. -- Franklin Delano Roosevelt's 1932 Model 905 Packard will be delivered to the State Museum Saturday, June 19, between 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.

Arnoff Fine Art Services, a division of Arnoff Moving and Storage, Inc., is generously donating their time and resources to move the valuable car Roosevelt purchased himself for use as governor of New York.

The Packard, now in storage at the Museum's Rotterdam facility that houses part of the Museum's collections, will be featured in the upcoming Looking Back: The State Museum in the Year 2000 exhibit scheduled to open on July 15.
