Automobiles Talbot began in 1920 under the ownership of A Darracq and Company Ltd after they purchased Sunbeam and Clement-Talbot. The new conglomerate was called STD. After just a couple of years as Talbot-Darracq, they took the name Automobiles Talbot. The company was the French subsidiary of STD and operated in the Suresnes region of France. Some of their most notable models were the M67 and DC. Automobiles Talbot built mostly expensive touring and passenger cars. In 1936 the STD group was bought out, and the company was purchased by Antonio Lago and became Talbot-Lago, keeping the same blue and white badge on the cars.
