SIZAIRE BERWICK / FRANCE

 SIZAIRE BERWICK ( 1913 - 1927 )

In France, there were a wide variety of brands bearing the name “SIZAIRE.” For example, the brand “SIZAIRE NAUDIN” existed from 1905 to 1921, and “SIZAIRE BERWICK” existed in England and France from 1913 to 1927. The English agent for SIAZAIRE NAUDIN, F.W. Berwick, had these vehicles built in France and marketed them in England under his name. 

This time, the first image I'm showing isn't the emblem, but an advertisement. That's because I think this advertisement is wonderful. It appeared in The Autocar magazine in 1919, but only as a black-and-white drawing.
I then had the advertisement colored in with watercolors using AI, and because the result is so beautiful, I don't want to keep it from anyone, so I'll start with it:

And here is the original advertisement in black and white. Color advertisements were very rare in 1919 and were very, very expensive. It can be assumed that SIZAIRE BERWICK did not have the money to pay for color advertisements.

 and here finally the SB emblem:

Size	4.5 cm x 6.4 cm
Year	c. 1920 - 1927

backside without makers mark ( as usual in France )

 Since the car was built specifically for the UK market, there were of course test reports too:

 

 

 

 

 I found a second version of the emblem, but it is unclear whether it is an original:

 

I also edited this ad with AI:

Note the rear wheel of the car. The AI attempted to complete the car and add the rear wheel, which is intentionally not shown in the original display.

 

A car without rear wheels is impossible (says AI).
