A Delightful 1942 Film of a trip to Alsace in a Peugeot 202


  I found this film enchanting and wanted to share it with you. A beautiful young woman in a classic car in 1942.  An Agfacolor film highlighting gorgeous scenery and classic architecture, including some with strong religious themes. Peaceful scenes that belie a Europe in a most deadly war -- what irony.

If only the world could live in the peace expressed in this film!

Note the Peugeot 202 takes its styling cues from Chrysler of the period.  The 202 was made beginning in 1938. Note the interesting way gas is filled up through the spare wheel.
