If you wonder just what was all the hub bub was about, well, Paris in the 1920s was having a grand time, and Citroen even had a 1/4 million light bulbs installed on the Eiffel tower for advertising in 1925

But, due to the stock market collapse, and a LOT of competition from other French car makers, in 1934 Citroën went bankrupt. 

Not just because of the financial crisis but also because of Citroën’s rivalry with Renault and the lengthy and costly development of the Traction Avant that had crippled the company and arguably also its boss. Fortunately, Michelin stepped in and saved the company.
