Delivered new in September 1920 to a certain Monsieur Lescure of Aubusson, we tracked it down in Belgium in the 1970s.

Finally, in 2008, it was acquired by Mr. Rollet at one of our sales on April 6 of that year. Like the rest of the collection, it took part in a number of events before being progressively less used. All the vehicles in the Rollet collection have been out of service for at least 5 years, and will need to be put back on the road.
