Original poster celebrates Renault’s aviation success in the Coupe Dunlop

Circa 1930

About the Item

This original vintage poster celebrates Renault’s aviation success in the Coupe Dunlop, a prestigious aerial competition for light aircraft. Featuring a striking Art Deco design, the poster highlights the Bengali 120/140 CV engine, a four-cylinder inverted air-cooled engine developed by Renault at their Billancourt factory in Seine. The event, which covered a 3,000 km circuit across Morocco and Algeria, saw pilot Gorlacher flying the Caudron Phalène to victory despite facing 24 competitors. The Coupe Dunlop was an important aviation event, reserved for private aircraft under 250 CV, focusing on flight regularity and speed performance. The winning average speed at the Biskra stage was an impressive 198 km/h. Illustrated with a bold black and red color scheme, the poster features an aircraft in mid-flight, a detailed route map, and a technical drawing of the Bengali engine, reinforcing Renault’s role in pioneering aviation technology. This historical artifact is a rare piece of aviation and automotive history, showcasing the golden age of aeronautical competition and Renault’s engineering prowess in the early 20th century.

Circa 1900 original french advertising poster created for Parfumerie Colgate
Located in PARIS, FR
This circa 1900 original poster, created for Parfumerie Colgate, is a striking example of early 20th-century advertising that blends artistic charm with commercial appeal. Designed in an era when product quality was a major selling point, this poster promotes Colgate's shaving soap, emphasizing its gentle formula that does not dry out the skin. The illustration features a young woman, elegantly dressed in period attire, presenting a handful of lather. Her warm smile and inviting gesture create an engaging, human-centered approach to advertising, drawing viewers in with a sense of trust and quality. The soft color palette and simple yet effective composition reflect the Art Nouveau influence, which was dominant in commercial design during this time. The prominent placement of the Colgate name and the detailed product boxes in the corners suggest early brand marketing strategies still recognizable today.
