"Voiture: A Journey Through Time" Step back in time and explore the fascinating world of "voiture, " a term that encompasses not just one company, but a rich history of motor cars. From the Voiture Henriod 1900 veteran motor car to the iconic 5 HP Star Voiture, these vehicles have left an indelible mark on automotive history. Did you know that the 5 HP Star Voiture holds the distinction of being the first car ever seen in New Zealand? Its arrival marked a new era for transportation in this beautiful country. Traveling further afield, we find ourselves amidst The Yellow Expedition in the Gobi Desert during 1931-32. A captivating black-and-white photo captures this daring journey through vast sands, showcasing both the beauty and challenges faced by early adventurers. In another snapshot from history, German Soldiers at Lille station in 1940 remind us of how automobiles played significant roles during times of conflict. These powerful machines were not only means of transport but also tools used by armies around Europe. Turning our attention to sportsmanship and speed, we witness an exhilarating moment captured during the First Grand Prix de France held at Le Mans on June 13th, 1906. This thrilling race showcased both technical prowess and human determination as drivers pushed their vintage voitures to their limits. The Battle of Marne brings forth images of requisitioned cabs transformed into makeshift ambulances during World War I. These brave vehicles served as lifelines for wounded soldiers on treacherous battlefields – a testament to their versatility and resilience. Transporting us to Paris in 1929 is a charming black-and-white photograph featuring Paul Morand standing beneath the majestic Eiffel Tower. The voiture parked nearby serves as a reminder that even amidst grandeur, automobiles remain integral parts of everyday life.
