That's it. Congratulations on your first point! :applause:

This remote controlled model car was shown in 1926 in Amsterdam and in 1928 in Rotterdam. Sadly I don't know who built this model Citroen 5CV. So if anyone knows more about it: there's another point to be earned.

This model car is the "Citroennette", a pedal car built by Paulin Ratier, a manufacturer of aircraft propellers, and sold by Citroen dealers. It was one of the most famous model cars of the time.

Do you think this photo would fit into my newly started vintage pedal car thread?
