Set of three catalogues for the Lincoln Zephyr V12
- Used
(Paris: Draeger, 1938. A set of three tri-fold full-color catalogues in French advertising the 1939 Lincoln Zephyr V12. Each is lavishly illustrated in Art Deco style, with extensive use of metallic inks. The front covers of each depict the ornamented grills of the luxury cars, with the slogan "pour l'élite," while the rear covers showcase Lincoln's flathead V12 engines and provides specifications. One catalogue has three full-color posters laid in, portraying the vehicle's elegant and streamlined aesthetics as a "masterpiece of the present times." The Zephyr was, in fact, the first successful streamlined car to come to market. Another poster compares the four-door sedan to the Winged Victory of Samothrace, and another to the ornate naval ships sailed under the Sun King, Louis XIV. On the reverse of each poster, in black & white, are additional images of the car's interior and exterior. In France, the automobiles were sold by Matford, a partnership between automakers Mathis and Ford. A fine set of deluxe automobilia, produced by the noted Parisian printer, Draeger.
