About This Item
(Paris: Société des Moteurs Salmson, 1934. Neuzerer, H.. Quarto. (8)ff. Catalogue promoting the Salmson S4D, from French automaker Société des Moteurs Salmson, illustrated throughout with black & white photographs depicting the interior, exterior, motor, and chassis of the vehicle. At the center of the booklet are five loose color posters with illustrations in a bold Art Deco style. The posters proclaim the merits of each body style of the S4D: for example, the "Précision" of the Cabriolet roadster, which is depicted alongside a jet engine, and the "Élégance" of the Demi-Berline sedan. Bound in bright violet printed wrappers bearing the name "Salmson S4D" in tall letters and a depiction of the sleek "Faux-Cabriolet." Advertising postcard and price list bearing dealership stamp laid in. Founded as a manufacturer of heavy-duty components for the military and railway, Salmson did not enter into automobile production until after World War One. Technically innovative, the models promoted in this brochure boasted independent front suspensions and an electro-mechanical gearbox. A few slight spots of rubbing to covers, else fine.
