Yes, it is a Génestin. I'm not quite sure about the model, though. According to the supposedly right caption, it is a six-cylinder from 1928. But other (trustworthy) sources tell me that from 1927 on, Génestin just built fours and eights. The only six by Génestin was the GL9 which was built earlier. Perhaps, someone can shed some light on this?

Anyway, one point for you, Otto.
