DELAUNAY BELLEVILLE / FRANCE


DELAUNAYS ( 1904 to 1950)  were known for smoothness and silence at a time when these were rare commodities.
The cars were also very individual in their looks,  and their round bonnet and radiator were a reference to the steam boiler origins of the company.
The last model in serious production was the R16, basically a hastily revamped Mercedes-Benz 230 available from 1936 to 1939 and again for five years after 1945.

Usually there was only a script on the DELAUNAY radiator.
Here I present you the only enameled radiator emblem ever made.
