Barcelona today. (UPDATE: Plaça Catalunya !)

• 

This shot must be taken some 80 years back in the centre of Barcelona. We are not sure which Plaza (square) this is, but for sure somebody from Barcelona must be able to us. Maybe our friend Francesc Palau, or the sympathetic organiser of AutoRetro, Senor Ferme Sule. But chances are small they can find the time to contact us now the Spanish show has opened its gates. It probably will be crowded like on this vintage print; click for full view. To get an idea what's going on there visit the online AutoRetro 2006. At least one car will be most interesting to see, this is the 1934 Phantom II three position drophead Coupe as offered by Pueche of Madrid. (photo Horwitz Collection)
UPDATE by Manel Baró : "Undoubtely is a nice view of the east side of Plaça Catalunya, the very heart of Barcelona, taken likely during the 1929 Expo." (sometimes an identification takes a bit longer; this photo was posted on December 6 , last year)
