Raul1983 FII have Georgano's Complete Encyclopedia of Motorcars 1st edition from 1968 and three-part 3rd edition from 1985. He is a great historian and was the first to publish a car encyclopedia. For friends of German makes I recommend Werner Oswald's 'Deutsche Autos' book serie. It is divided to three parts; 1885-1920, 1920-1945 and 1945-1990. It has a discription of all important German car manufacturers. Also he has wrote a similar serie of German and East-German (GDR) truck manufacturers and divided into several parts aswell.

chris40 ENI don't think so: it seems smaller than the Unknown and has artillery wheels, not wire-spoked.
Raul, the nearest thing I recall to what you want I found in the reference section of a public library I no longer use. I can't remember the title, unfortunately, but if you type 'Georgano' into Google you might find what you're looking for, as G.N. Georgano - and his various collaborators, who include Nick Baldwin and Lord Montagu of Beaulieu - have probably as encyclopaedic a knowledge of early cars as anyone.

Raul1983 FISuch a shame that there isn't a good catalogue made of early European car manufacturers (c.1890-1940). A thoroughly complete catalogue eg. Standard Catalogue of American Cars - book serie (eternal source of new information!) is of great help in identifying work. There are very good car encyclopedias published in Italy, Germany and France about their own products in early motoring history. These are almost always not written in English. Europe is divided by language barriers which greatly hinder communication between big automotive nations. Knowledge remains inside countries and information is centered on elderly people who are not connected to the Internet.

Also two world wars greatly reduced the number of old cars in Europe because need for steel was high. Therefore there isn't nearly as many vintage cars here than is in the US and so interest is very low towards these vehicles. It seems no one really cares about these vehicles. And why would someone care? People who were alive when these cars were new haven't lived for decades now. Is it just ancient history now ? Excuse my rant ;)

Now about this car. British Standard?

1932 Cadillac Fleetwood [4975]
The Last Emperor (1987)
mrcadillac SXThe close-ups provided by "G-Mann" in the UK (thanks!) appear to confirm my theory as to the Cadillac's power plant being a V-8. You can almost make out the single figure "8" in the center of the "V" grille badge. Also it does appear to have a partition and glass between the front and rear compartments; that would make it a limousine (sedanca) rather than a sedan (saloon). The emblem atop the radiator shroud is not the original Cadillac "goddess" or "heron" for that year; it is more likely the Chinese emperor's own symbol of office. So, I'm thinking "Fleetwood" style #4975. See this page of my "Cadillac Database:

http://www.car-nection.com/yann/Dbas_txt/Phocad32.htm

As a matter of interest, the last emperor of China, Pu Yi, did have a custom-built 1933 Cadillac V-16 limousine which is available in 1/18 scale for the toy collectors among you. Check out this page of my "Cadillac Database":

yvon52 LUPour ceux qui lisent le chinois ( :D) le site des Fiat en Chine. Le site est très beau.

The Last Emperor (1987) yvon52 LURight, in China, there happened several anti-foreigners movements in the '30 and by exemple lot of cars were putted in fire around 1932. Secondly with the communist system, private cars were prohibited, so ....and nobody would keep symbols of "old time" in the garden = too dangerous.

Other point, all rich chinees run away by any way when communist arrived. So, sure that they drove with the cars of the pré-war period to Formosa.

It's possible that the producers shipped over some cars from Italy if they couldn't find anything suitable in China.

1932 Cadillac Fleetwood [4975]
The Last Emperor (1987)
mrcadillac SX"Yvon52" is right, it's definitely a 1932 Cadillac, 7-passenger sedan [or limousine if it has a partition]. The grille badge appears to have a black cloisonne background; that would make it a "Series 355B" with V-8 motor. But it could also be a dark blue background, making it a "Series 370B" with V-12 motor. It's definitely NOT a "Series 452B" with V-16 motor; the latter had a longer hood, with seven lateral vent doors. 2006-06-27 02:02
