Renault automobile poster, date unknown.

I usually try to do the legwork to find context such as what sort of car is in a poster, but I am not certain about this one. My best guess is Renault 40 CV Type JV Torpedo, circa 1922, which is the model pictured below. Maybe an automobile aficionado can correct that if I'm getting it wrong. It looks virtually identical to the poster car to me, but I know little about 1920s cars.

Thanks! The backstory often interests me more than the bare image.
