Cycling Magazine Posters and Art Prints

Cover of a vintage copy of Motor Cycling Magazine from February 1953 featuring a Royal Enfield motorcycle

A vibrant vintage poster, likely from the late 19th or early 20th century, from the Belle Époque era. It advertises American bicycles. The central figure is a woman poised on a bicycle, looking directly at the viewer with a calm expression. She is dressed in attire typical of the period: a long skirt, a striped shirt with puffed sleeves, and a hat adorned with flowers and leaves. The text is in a mix of French and English, with the words "26 Rue du 4 Septembre PARIS" indicating an address, and "LA New-York ME VOILA!!" which translates to "The New York HERE I AM!!"

This image is a playful vintage illustration set against a vibrant red background. It depicts a cheerful woman riding a penny-farthing bicycle, which is characterized by a large front wheel and a much smaller rear wheel. She's dressed in a whimsical outfit reminiscent of the late 19th to early 20th century, with a large hat adorned with a feather, a billowing blouse, and a skirt that puffs out around her as she rides. Her hair and the ribbons from her hat flow behind her, suggesting movement and speed. A jolly dog, possibly a greyhound or similar breed, is illustrated mid-leap alongside her, adding to the dynamic and joyful feel of the scene.
