Picture: Concours with a selection of large Bugattis, including the Weymann Royale.
Pierre Heegaard from Switzerland informs me that the picture was taken in St-Moritz in Switzerland. You can see the background, on the left the Grand Hotel and on the right the Carlton. On the foreground at the right of the picture, I would say it is the so called Grand Hotel des Bains (know called the Kempinski). It seems that the picture has been taken on their ground.

Picture: Early Bugatti with nice body. Possiby 8-valve.
Frank Studstrup pointed out to me that this is in fact a 1919 Type 22, Chassis 777, which was delivered to Lord Cholmondeley, as described in The Bugatti Revue Volume 14, Issue 4. This was Cholmondeley's first Bugatti.

Volume 26

Issue 1 (January 27, 2021):

The opening picture is of a special Bugatti, Chassis 43234, photo dates to about 1960 and was taken in Limoges at the Bugatti garage Dumontant. It is a T43 rolling chassis of 1928 which was the daily transport of Louis Garnier, wine merchant in the Drome.

The body was made by a local blacksmith. Not much after these photographs were taken, chassis and body were separated. The chassis was fitted with a Grand Sport body. This coupé body was later photographed at De Dobbeleer in Brussels on a T44 chassis, and has since disappeared.
