1911 original poster for La Bicyclette - Le Globe - early 20th-century cycling
Located in PARIS, FR
The 1911 original poster for La Bicyclette - Le Globe is a remarkable testament to the early 20th-century cycling culture and the rise of competitive sports marketing. Created to promote the Le Globe bicycle brand, this poster emphasizes its association with significant cycling achievements, including victories in prestigious races like the Tour de France 1910 and 1911 and the grueling Paris-Brest-Paris 1911. Cycling was rapidly gaining popularity in Europe during this era, not only as a mode of transportation but as a competitive sport that captured the imagination of the public. The poster highlights Le Globe bicycles’ durability and superior design, attributing their performance to technological advancements such as the Eadie freewheel, Hans Renold chain, and Bowden brakes. These innovations are prominently mentioned as key factors behind the brand's success in overcoming the rigors of demanding races. Victories by riders using Le Globe bicycles are proudly celebrated in the poster, with detailed references to stage wins in the Tour de France and the extraordinary records set during the Paris-Brest-Paris race. The detailed text serves as both a chronicle of accomplishments and an endorsement of the brand’s reliability and superiority. The typographic design, typical of early 20th-century posters, conveys authority and credibility while catering to an audience eager for both sporting news and technical innovation. This promotional piece stands as an enduring relic of an era when cycling was not just a sport but a symbol of progress and industrial ingenuity. Today, the La Bicyclette - Le Globe poster...

Original "Gladiaator" art nouveau vintage bicycle poster
Located in Spokane, WA
Original Gladiator Cycles. Artist: Gaston Noury. Stone lithograph that has professional archival linen backing. Size: 36" 49". C. 1889. Stone lithograph. Very good condition; ready to frame. The Gladiator Cycle Company, Clément-Gladiator (from 1896), was a French manufacturer of bicycles. The inside of all of the bicycle rims are done in gold or gold foil. Gold is also used in the flowers around the big ring that reads Gladiator. It doesn’t appear that this early bicycle had any brakes, so she may need that angel resting on her shoulder! Fold marks restored during linen backing, ready to frame. There is some waves at the bottom right, but no paper loss or damage. Antique bicycle posters have been and will be very collectible. This original Gaston Noury original stone lithograph is now challenging to find in any condition. Original linen-backed turn-of-the-century antique vintage bicycle...
