Peugeot 201. La grande marque national.
Paris: P. Thévoz, (1930?). Colour-printed, photographic offset print. Photos by Germaine Krull. Original, vintage advertisement sheet. 1 folded sheet. Size: 384 × 397 mm. Some foxing to edges. Overall in fine condition.
Early “Peugeot 201” advertisement brochure with Germaine Krull’s photographs.
Germaine Krull was commissioned to take advertising photos for the new model of the French car manufacturer, the “Peugeot 201” in 1929. This project considered as a crucial point in both her personal and professional life as she developed an enthusiasm for road trips and thus started to photograph sites from inside the running car.
The scarce advertisement sheet shows five of her images in a modernist layout on one side. The other side indicates the technical data of the variants of the model with graphical images. The graphics of the front shows an infinite row of the successful “Peugeot 201” with the French tricolour as background and the motto of Peugeot “la grande marque nationale”.
