Rally of Charmes... (UPDATE)

During Christie's coming 2 December automobilia auction a group of vintage Lady Racing Drivers will be hammered. Hopefully in a gentle way. The shot we choose to highlight is from one of the earlier editions of the rally Paris-St.Raphael - for ladies only - which was first held in 1929. The historical version of this feminin rally is better known as the Rallye des Princesses (Zaniroli.com) for which mixed couples are eligible as well. Whom of the connoisseurs among you can tell which leopard lady is posing next to this special bodied Peugeot 201 ? , 301 ? Then on one of the other photos we see Josephine Baker in a car that appears to be an Amilcar. Or what else? (photo courtesy Christie's )

UPDATE by Glen Robb: when checking Christie's Lady Drivers Lot (click): "... Picture top left is Helle Nice. Centre right is Josephine Baker with Violette Morris in a BNC. Bottom left Francoise Ferrand Amilcar ." Thanks Glen!
