Featured here is a cover from Moynat's 1929 catalogue. It's quite fascinating for me to see the beginnings of the automobile industry. Nowadays we take for granted the trunks in our car. But as one can see from the illustration above, it wasn't always so. Imagine the design that went into each piece of luggage in order for them to fit like a puzzle. Not only that, but you had to take into consideration what traveler's brought with them at that time. I'm pretty sure the complimentary suitcases weren't by accident. So the next time you pack for a road trip and you stuff your things into your car, think of this ad. Maybe you would wish you had four Moynat trunks for your journey.
