No

No

Time for my reoccurring French geography lesson.  Is the pictured facility east of a north-south line through Paris?

[Wendax]

I have conflicting sources as to where this workshop was located. Might as well been in Paris, sorry.

[4popoid]

OK, let's if I have this straight.  The photograph was taken in Paris (Paris proper, not a suburb) likely in the 1905 -1909 time frame.  If this is correct I'll try: Société des Automobiles Ours.

[Wendax]

The time frame is correct, but not Ours.
