Course on a a model for driver's education. Royal Palace, Monaco 1954

At the Royal Palace in Monaco, 1954, an instructor in a double-breasted uniform leads a course in automotive mechanics. He uses a long rod to demonstrate the features of a cutaway vehicle to five attentive men in work clothes. Mounted on stands, the model’s exposed ladder frame, inline-six engine, and sectioned brake drum reveal the inner workings of the automobile. A rack of firearms on the wall in the background suggests a military or law enforcement context for the training session.
