Nouvelle Société Anonyme des Automobiles Martini, 125 franc share, Saint-Blaise 1915, ornate border, blue, with coupons, hole and stamped cancelled, good very fine. Formed by Adolf von Martini, son of the inventor of the Martini Henri Rifle. An experimental car was built as early as 1897 but their factory for full production was not built until 1904. Exports were badly hit by WWI and despite the company building some beautifully engineered models in the 1920´s they finally failed in 1934, at the height of the world recession. Estimate £ 60
