1238 - 25-11 - 1934 Citroen 22CV

Description

Attempt at making a 1930s style advertising poster.
The inclusion of the slogan at the top was an afterthought; if I'd have thought of it initially, I would have moved the two cars slightly lower down nearer the center.

Both cars pictures are two very opposite (not just in looks, but mechanically also) propositions for a Citroen, oddly both called the 22CV. The one on the left was based on the 11CV Traction Avant, but was bigger, more powerful with a V8 engine, and more nicely kitted out on the inside, and was called the Super Traction. It was fully intended for production but something got in the way and no more than a few prototypes were made, none of which exist today.
The one on the right was completely opposite; rear engined, and following a streamlined design that for the time was very forward thinking and futuristic. As far as I'm aware, no prototypes were actually built, though an old advert for it is floating around somewhere (what I based my drawing off).
