LAVIGNE / FRANCE

LAVIGNE, named after the founder Paul Lavigne, was a short lived French bus and truck maker in Courbevoie near Paris.  They started before 1930 and closed in 1937.
I don´t know if there is still a truck / bus  left.
So the the emblem is also very, very rare . You have to look years for it !
