The Maison Parisienne was a French automobile manufactured from 1897 until around 1898. They were Benzes built under license by a M. Laboure of La Maison Parisienne to be sold on the French market. Some were sold under the name "l'Eclair". In 1898 the company engineer, a M. Serex, designed a flat-twin car which ran in the Marseille-Nice Race of that year; this, too, was built along the lines of a Benz.
Famous quotes containing the word maison:
“There is a social respect necessary in company: you may start your own subject of conversation with modesty, taking care, however, de ne jamais parler de cordes dans la maison d’un pendu.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
