ARIES / FRANCE ( 1910 - 1938 )
The French ARIES was founded by the Baron Charles Petiet.
In 1910 they ARIES catalogued the smallest 6-cylinder car in the world.
During WW I they made Hispano Suiza engines and profited by the experience to make better cars subsequently.
Most of all ARIES had a script on the radiator and no badge or emblem.
Only in the years 1934 to 1938 there was a nice emblem on the front of the radiator shell.
Car production ceased in 1938.

reveres of an ARIES badge. No makers mark. |
Many years I thought that there was no enameled ARIES badge. But than I found one under the bonnet ! The screws to open the cam cover are enameled and showing the radiator of the car.
What a nice idea ! I known the builder of the French BALLOT car had the same idea. But who was the first ?
