Citroën - Un siècle en images

When André Citroën laid the foundations of a company for the construction of automobiles in the autumn of 1918, he already had a solid industrial background. In 1913, he founded the Société des Engrenages Citroën: their herringbone-shaped teeth would become the emblem of his brand.
The first "type A" was born in the spring of 1919. André Citroën then invented a whole universe around this little marvel that was destined to transform the 20th century. He wanted to become the leading European automobile manufacturer and his company would experience phenomenal expansion.

In 2019, Citroën celebrated its hundredth anniversary. It is the youngest, but also the most popular of the French brands. Thanks to this centenary album, every convinced "Citroënist" reader or simple car enthusiast will be able to travel back in time among more than eighty iconic models that have made the history of the brand.

Citroën - une passion française

Over a century, the chevron brand has forged special links with France and the French. Those who created the models, those who assembled them in workshops and factories, those who sold them, but also those who brought them to life on a daily basis: collectors, garage owners, restorers, clubs or simple drivers.

Citroën 1919-1949 : La belle époque

The first 25 years of Citroën automobiles deserved to be highlighted by a selection of period texts and an impressive number of documents: more than 1 100 photographs, leaflets, posters, very often unpublished.
The book details the life of André Citroën, seen by his relatives, photographers, caricaturists, his cars, starting with the 18 CV torpedo, the eternal Traction Avant with exclusive information on the legendary 22 CV, the official drawings of the 2 CV, dating from 1937 ...

The world of the double chevron is examined under a magnifying glass: factories, advertising, toys, dealers and representatives in Europe. The last chapter presents - sometimes in period colours! - the Citroëns during the Second World War: those of the rare French who were authorised to drive, but also the vehicles of the resistance, those of the occupier.

The resumption of production at Quai de Javel, immediately after the war - when it was necessary to wait years to have the right to buy a Traction - closes this work in style. A whole set that will make this book a reference with an unequalled atmosphere.

Citroën: 100 Jahre Automobilgeschichte

In 1919, a fully bodied and equipped car rolled off an assembly line in Europe for the first time in series production: the first Citroën. The following 100 years produced several milestones in automotive history - the work of exceptional designers, constructors and managers, starting with the charismatic founder André Citroën himself.

The most French of all car brands was also the most international, growing by applying American models and increasingly looking to China for the future. The company pioneered advertising and communication, developing legendary and unique models such as Traction Avant, 2 CV and DS. However, dramatic crises led Citroën to the brink of the abyss and into the hands of new owners, and it experienced two dramatic takeovers, first by Michelin and later by Peugeot.

To mark the centenary of the brand with the double chevron, the first and most comprehensive overview of the company, as the French see it, was published in German.

From the charismatic figure of the founder, to the numerous original minds who continued his company, the exciting history of the company and its models, the failures with the Wankel engine and the triumphs in rallying - this magnificent book leaves out no aspect of this special history.
