Today a very nice Frenchman turned up in a car opened his boot an Lo and behold a boot full of Citroen tools and parts.
I paid 200€ for this lot, the photos only show about half but I picked the most interesting
I dont know what they all do yet but I know some as they are for the Traction and H Van they are all WILMONDA or CIL Citroen
The board is about 26" by 40" to give you perspective

is this from the same fella who brought the Traction grille, and an old enamel sign etc?

It does look like one in the top picture apart from the fact the pipe is solid
