Clément Paris Tray

 The Clément company, founded by Adolphe Clément-Bayard, was a prominent French manufacturer of bicycles and later automobiles and motorcycles in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Their products were known for their quality and innovation, contributing significantly to the development of personal transportation during that era. The brand was a symbol of French industrial prowess and sporting achievement.

This tin tray likely served as a promotional item or a decorative piece, showcasing the brand's association with both cycles and automobiles. Such trays were common in the early 20th century, often featuring advertisements or scenes related to the products they represented, and are now sought after by collectors of automobilia and vintage advertising.
