- [Greg Van Avermaet Signed, 2016 Tour de France Yellow Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/greg-van-avermaet-signed-2016-tour-de-france-yellow-jersey-2/) - Signed by Greg Van Avermaet Authentic Race Issue, 2016 Yellow Jersey “I always stayed myself, I think. I realized I was just a cyclist, and I wasn’t going to change the world. At my thing, I was quite good, but I also realized that everybody has value. I tried to respect everybody and what they’re doing.” -Greg Van Avermaet Greg Van Avermaet is regarded as one of the most versatile riders of modern cycling. A specialist in classic races, he also excelled in stage races, particularly on hilly terrain, winning the general classification at the 2016 Tirreno–Adriatico and the 2018 Tour de Yorkshire. His strong sprint finish allowed him to win sprints from small lead groups, while he also claimed victories through solo breakaways. Van Avermaet won the men's individual road race at the 2016 Summer Olympics and has triumphed in several prestigious one-day races, including Paris–Roubaix, Gent–Wevelgem, and E3 Harelbeke in 2017, as well as the GP de Montréal and Omloop Het Nieuwsblad in 2016 and 2017. In the Grand Tours, he secured two individual stage wins in the Tour de France, wore the Yellow Jersey for eleven days across the 2016 and 2018 editions, and won the points classification in the Vuelta a España, where he also claimed a stage victory. Additionally, he was the overall winner of the 2017 UCI World Tour.

- [1996 Paris-Roubaix - Participant's Medal, Race Winner - Johan Museeuw](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1996-paris-roubaix-participants-medal-race-winner-johan-museeuw/) - Authentic 1996, 100th Anniversary of Paris-Roubaix Participant's Medal from the Motorola Cycling Team This beautifully detailed medal commemorates the 100th anniversary of Paris-Roubaix, one of cycling’s most revered and punishing one-day races. One side of the medal features riders battling across the pavé, while the reverse shows the 1996 centenary route from Compiègne to Roubaix, with classic race locations including Saint Quentin, Troisvilles, Solesmes, Valenciennes, the Trouée d’Arenberg, Orchies, Cysoing, Hem, and Roubaix marked in relief. The 1996 Paris Roubaix, held on 14 April, was won by Belgian great Johan Museeuw of Mapei GB, covering 263.5 kilometers in 6h 05m 00s. It became one of the most famous team displays in the history of the race, as Mapei swept the podium with Museeuw first, Gianluca Bortolami second, and Andrea Tafi third, all finishing in the same time. The decisive break formed far from the finish, with Mapei’s strongest riders taking control over the cobbles. Franco Ballerini, the defending champion, was also part of the Mapei assault but lost ground after punctures, leaving Museeuw, Bortolami, and Tafi to ride into Roubaix together. Museeuw’s victory was his first Paris-Roubaix win and helped cement his reputation as one of the defining classics riders of his generation. Paris-Roubaix is one of cycling’s oldest one-day races, first run in 1896, and has earned its reputation as the sport’s most punishing classic over more than a century. The race became inseparable from the brutal roads of northern France, especially its long stretches of pavé, the cobblestones that turn speed into survival and make mechanical failures part of the story. Its most famous nickname, the Hell of the North, did not begin as a romantic reference to cobbles; it was first used in 1919, when organizers and journalists traveled through a war-scarred landscape to see whether the route still existed after World War I. Over time, the start moved away from central Paris, it shifted to Chantilly in the 1960s, and since 1977, it has started in Compiègne, while the finish has, for the most part, since 1943, played out inside the Roubaix Velodrome, where the chaos of the roads suddenly becomes a clean track sprint. Modern Paris-Roubaix history also has its iconic set pieces, including the Trouée d’Arenberg, a fearsome cobbled sector through a forest first added in 1968 as race planners searched for tougher pavé after many roads were resurfaced. And in a final touch that feels perfectly on brand, since 1977, the winner has received a cobblestone trophy, a literal piece of the race. This medal was acquired by The Horton Collection in the Fall of 2022 directly from Motorola Team founder Jim Ochowicz as part of a substantial amount of legacy memorabilia. A Certificate of Authenticity accompanies each Legacy Collection item. Size: 2 ¼ inches (7 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.
- [Georges Speicher, Champion of France 1937, 1933 Tour de France Winner](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/georges-speicher-champion-of-france-1937/) - Encore et Toujours Alcyon Georges Speicher, Championnat de France 1937 Georges Speicher (1907–1978) was a prominent French professional cyclist in the 1930s, renowned for his versatility and charisma. In 1933, he made history by becoming the first rider to win both the Tour de France and the World Road Race Championship in the same year—a feat that earned him the nickname "Le roi de Montlhéry" after his victory at the Linas-Montlhéry autodrome. His Tour de France triumph was marked by three stage wins and a consistent performance in the mountains, where he often regained lost time through his exceptional descending skills. Beyond his 1933 successes, Speicher secured the Paris–Roubaix in 1936 and clinched the French National Road Race Championship three times (1935, 1937, and 1939). He also achieved nine individual stage victories in the Tour de France across various editions. Speicher's career left an indelible mark on French cycling history.

- [Eddy Merckx, 1970 Tour de France](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/eddy-merckx-1970-tour-de-france/) - Eddy Merckx "525" Limited Edition Merckx goes flat out at Stage 23 of the 1970 Tour de France. This 54km individual time trial was the last stage of the Tour, and Merckx already had the Tour all but sewn up: his 10'14" overall lead over second-place Joop Zoetemelk was virtually insurmountable. Not one to rest on his laurels, "Le Canibale" /"de Kanibaal" felt his job was not done until he crushed his competitors once more by winning the time trial stage by 1'47". With that, the second of what in his career would eventually be five Tour de France victories were complete! This limited edition series is set at 525 numbered lithographs to correspond and celebrate Eddy Merckx's unprecedented 525 career victories. Each 24" x 20" lithograph has been personally signed by Eddy Merckx and comes with a certificate of authenticity from The Horton Collection.

- [Raymond Poulidor, 1965 Tour de France](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/raymond-poulidor-1965-tour-de-france/) - Raymond Poulidor Tour de France, 1965 Raymond "Poupou" Poulidor attacks during the 1965 Tour de France, where he ultimately finished 2nd to Italy's Felice Gimondi. While his nickname "the eternal second" fit the 1965 Tour, he had a career stacked with legendary victories: 1961 Milan–San Remo, 1963 La Flèche Wallonne, 1963 Grand Prix des Nations, 1964 Vuelta a España, Critérium International (1964, 1966, 1968, 1971–72), Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré (1966, 1969), Paris–Nice (1972–73), and 7 stage wins at the Tour de France.

- [Roger De Vlaeminck, 1971 Tour de France](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/roger-de-vlaeminck-1971-tour-de-france/) - Roger De Vlaeminck Tour de France, 1971 This awesome image captures an otherwise routine moment of a race but does so in a very composed and striking manner. It shows De Vlaeminck riding away from the camera while his wife, Marleen, in a dress and heels, passes up what appears to be a glass bottle of water, or perhaps wine, to take the edge off his pain. De Vlaeminck wore the green jersey at the 1971 Tour de France from Stage 3 until he lost it at Stage 7 to Gerban Karstens. Unfortunately, De Vlaeminck crashed hard and rode heavily bandaged for a few more stages until the pain became unbearable, and he abandoned at Stage 11. De Vlaeminck raced as a pro for 16 seasons, from 1969-1984, and was an absolute beast during the 1970s. Mention the name Roger De Vlaeminck and the race that first comes to mind is Paris-Roubaix. He won it a record four times. He also hit the victory punch card at all the monuments, one of only three riders to do so. The others were Eddy Merckx and Rik Van Looy. It must be something in the Belgian water. Often overlooked in the American press is the fact that he won stages in all three grand tours, including 22 at the Giro d’Italia, which he raced nine times. And he just so happened to win the overall at Tirreno-Adriatico six years in a row. The fact that he was also the world cyclo-cross champion in 1975 sheds light on bike-handling skills that come in handy on those springtime cobblestones covered in mud and moss.

- [Laundry Day at the Giro](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/laundry-day-at-the-giro/) - Giro d’Italia, 1952 Stage 11, Venezia to Bolzano In this photo, we see one of the quiet moments between the battles on the road for the pink leader’s jersey of the Giro. A laundry woman hangs the freshly washed wool jerseys and shorts of the Nilux team up to dry in the sun after Stage 11 into Bolzano. The photographer beautifully captured the symmetry and shadows of this scene.

- [Charly Gaul, 1953 Criterium du Dauphine](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/charly-gaul-criterium-dauphine-1953/) - Charly Gaul Criterium du Dauphine, 1953 Charly Gaul turned pro in May 1953. The Criterium du Dauphine, an 8-day race in the French Alps, was his first big professional race in June of that year.

- [Paris-Brest-Paris 1931](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/paris-brest-paris-1931/) - Emile Decroix (4th), Leon Louyet (2nd) & Ernest Mottard (12th) Paris-Brest-Paris Buffalo Velodrome, 6 September 1931 This powerful black-and-white image captures the raw exhaustion and gritty determination of the Genial team at the finish of the legendary Paris–Brest–Paris, one of the oldest and most grueling endurance races in cycling history. Caked in mud, their jerseys torn and sweat-stained, these riders embody the brutal reality of early long-distance racing, where toughness outweighed technology and heroics played out over hundreds of unpaved kilometers. Surrounded by curious onlookers and fellow racers, Leon Louvet, in the center, grips his handlebars with a bouquet of victory flowers tangled in his brake cables, a surreal contrast to the fatigue etched on every face. The riders’ expressions speak volumes—fellow Belgians Emile Decrois and Ernest Mottard flank Leon Louyet in the center. Paris-Brest-Paris was a long, grueling race, 1,200 km (750 miles) in length, with few stops, and minimal support was allowed. In 1931, the fifth edition of Paris-Brest-Paris was held under stormy conditions, and many of the 28 professional riders who started the race did not finish. This edition ended with a sprint in the Buffalo Velodrome after 50 hours on the road.

- [Aldo Parecchini, 1976 Tour de France, Stage 6 Winner](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/ercole-gualazzini-brooklyn-cycling-team/) - Aldo Parecchini 1976 Tour de France, Stage 6 Winner Brooklyn Cycling Team The 1976 Tour de France, dubbed “The Saharan Tour,” was excessively hot. A heat wave had gripped France for days, and the riders suffered day and night. In this dynamic image, you can feel the heat from a long day in the saddle, and the welcome relief a splash of water brings the Brooklyn Team rider. This fantastic photo published in the July 1976 issue of Miroir Cyclisme Magazine captures Aldo Parecchini celebrating his 180 km solo escape to win the stage by 4’29” on the line in Nancy.

The 1923 Tour came close, of the 139 riders who started only 48 finished in Paris.

- [2004 Tour de France, Race Used Car Plaque, Visiteurs Parking](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2004-tour-de-france-race-used-car-plaque-visiteurs-parking-2/) - Since the earliest days of racing, race organizer vehicles, team cars, and other members of the official race caravan have displayed plaques identifying their roles: officials, press, medical, advertising, team support, and more. These began as hand-painted or printed signs on heavy metal sheets, bolted directly to the vehicles. Over time, they evolved into versions made of paper affixed to wood, durable board, or plastic. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, those formats gave way to windshield stickers, disposable one-race decals that quickly became the new standard. At the time, we knew there was no turning back. But we also saw something worth celebrating in the new format, and knew we had to find a way to preserve this cherished racing tradition. Suddenly, caravan signage, already fleeting by nature, became even more ephemeral. These markers have long made fantastic souvenirs, whether as a reminder of a race you witnessed in person or on TV, a tribute to a birth year, graduation, anniversary, or a legendary edition of a race. Above all, they make for striking, race-worn display pieces in any bike room, man cave, or she shed. We’re thrilled to offer a collection of these official race caravan plaques, many sourced directly from Jim Ochowicz, founder of the legendary 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, and CCC Cycling Teams. Part of a larger trove of cycling memorabilia, each of these unique modern markers has been carefully mounted by Brett, who teamed up with a local woodworker to affix them to custom-cut, 3/16” thick coated display panels. The scuffs, nicks, and bits of dirt? That’s part of the charm. Remember, these were race-used. Each piece is an authentic artifact. Items from 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, or CCC include a team-specific Certificate of Authenticity. Others, gathered through our own travels and from additional teams, come with a similar COA. These are difficult to find. When they’re gone, they’re gone. So if one speaks to you, grab it! All race stickers are sold unframed. Framed images are display ideas only. Size: 8 x 3 5/8 inches (20.2 x 9.3 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

- [Peloton Rider,  Salza  c.1970](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/peloton-rider-salza-c-1970-46/) - Original Vintage Diecast Metal Peloton Rider These little beauties are a fantastic addition to any cycling collection. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

Founded in the nineteenth century, Bianchi is one of cycling’s most historic brands, associated with generations of champions and instantly recognized for its famous celeste bicycles.

- [2002 Vuelta a España Leader's Jersey, Signed by Roberto Heras](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2002-vuelta-a-espana-leaders-jersey-signed-by-roberto-heras/) - 2002 Vuelta Jersey, Signed by Roberto Heras after Stage 19 Roberto Heras gave the U.S. Postal Service a serious shot at overall victory in the 2002 Vuelta a España, emerging as the team’s great hope in the mountains and one of the race’s strongest climbers. His decisive moment came during Stage 15 on the brutal ascent of Alto de l’Angliru, where he won the stage and pulled on the Leader’s Jersey, a position he defended all the way to the final time trial. Although he ultimately lost the race on the last day and finished second overall, Heras’s 2002 Vuelta remains a remarkable performance, defined by two stage victories, several days in the race lead, and a fearless battle for the overall title right to the finish. Roberto Heras is a Spanish former professional cyclist, born on February 1, 1974, in Béjar, who became one of the most accomplished Grand Tour climbers of his generation. He is best known for his extraordinary record at the Vuelta a España, where he won the race four times, in 2000, 2003, 2004, and 2005, a total that stands as the record for overall victories.

- [1949 Tour de France Official Tour Results Poster, Race Winner - Fausto Coppi](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1949-tour-de-france-official-tour-results-poster-race-winner-fausto-coppi/) - 1949 Tour de France Official Tour Results Poster A gorgeous, colorful official 1949 Tour de France poster. The design is headed “RÉSULTATS DU TOUR” in large black letters (Note the interesting typo - Tiour instead of Tour). At the center sits a bright red map of France, with the Tour route traced around the country and Paris boldly marked in the middle. Around this central panel runs a broad border of red and blue rectangles, each carrying an advertisement for a regional business, many of them based in Marseille, including shops, cafés, clothing stores, garages, and service companies. The imprint along the lower edge credits “PIRA décorateur” for the design and Publicité Montpellier-Index in Montpellier as printer and publisher, matching descriptions in French archival and auction records. The lower third of the sheet is a large blank rectangle. This space was left empty so that shopkeepers or race organizers could write in the day’s Tour results by hand, updating the classification as the race progressed. Pieces of this type were used in shops, bars, or public spaces to attract customers who wanted to follow the Tour and to showcase local advertisers. The 1949 Tour de France was the 36th edition of the race, run from 30 June to 24 July 1949 over 21 stages and about 4,800 kilometers, starting and finishing in Paris. It became one of the most famous Tours in history thanks to the rivalry between Italian stars Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali. Coppi ultimately won the overall classification, with Bartali second and French rider Jacques Marinelli third. Coppi also took the mountains classification and, with teammates, helped Italy win the team classification, making 1949 a dominant year for the Italian squad. This poster captures the public-facing side of that era, when crowds followed Coppi and Bartali’s battle stage by stage on hand-written result boards in cafés and shop windows. With its bold map, colorful advertising border, and large results area, it is both a graphic piece of commercial art and a tangible relic of the legendary 1949 Tour de France. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters, allowing them to be displayed or framed without compromising their value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction. Year: 1949 Artist: PIRA, décorateur Publicité Montpellier - Index Size: 59 x 80.5 cm ( 23 ¼ x 31 ¾ inches) Posters are sold unframed. Framed images are display ideas only. This is a one-of-a-kind item; please review the photos carefully to determine the condition.

- [1994 Tour de France - Participant Medal, Race Winner - Miguel Indurain](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1994-tour-de-france-participant-medal-race-winner-miguel-indurain/) - Authentic 1994 Tour de France Participants Medal from the Motorola Cycling Team This beautiful medal features a wonderful, raised, full, stage-by-stage map on one side, along with fantastic early' 90s-style lettering on the other. The map on this medal has lovely details. Be sure to look closely to see the stop at Euro Disney, along with the planes and trains the peloton utilized to make stage transfers. The 1994 Tour de France was dominated by Miguel Indurain, who took firm control in the long Stage 9 Time Trial from Périgueux to Bergerac and never truly looked vulnerable afterward. Chris Boardman had opened the race in yellow after winning the prologue, and the Tour’s visit to England gave the early stages a distinctive flavor, but the race’s central story was Indurain’s overwhelming power against the clock and his calm authority in the mountains. Marco Pantani emerged as the dazzling new climbing sensation, Richard Virenque confirmed his status as France’s great hope in the high mountains, and Piotr Ugrumov finished strongly to claim second overall, but none could seriously threaten the Banesto leader. Indurain won the general classification ahead of Ugrumov and Pantani, while Djamolidine Abdoujaparov took the points competition, Virenque won the mountains title, Pantani claimed the young rider classification, Festina won the team prize, and Eros Poli earned super-combativity honors. Indurain’s victory was especially important because it was his fourth consecutive Tour de France win, placing him firmly among the sport’s greatest stage-race champions and setting the stage for his record-equaling fifth victory the following year. This medal was acquired by The Horton Collection in the Fall of 2022 directly from Motorola Team founder Jim Ochowicz as part of a substantial amount of legacy memorabilia. A Certificate of Authenticity accompanies each Legacy Collection item. Size: 3 1/2 inches (9 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.
- [1994 Tour de Haut Var - Participant Medal, Race Winner - Laurent Brochard](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1994-tour-de-haut-var-participant-medal-race-winner-laurent-brochard/) - Authentic 1994 Tour de Haur Var Participants Medal from the Motorola Cycling Team This handsome participant’s medal was produced for the 26th Tour du Haut Var, held on 19 February 1994 in the rugged, hilly country of the Var region in southeastern France. The obverse reads “Tour du Haut Var, 26ème, 19 Février 1994, Association Sportive Seillanaise,” while the reverse shows a raised map of the race route, beginning in Fréjus and ending in Draguignan, with details of each city visited. The 1994 edition covered 199 kilometers from Fréjus to Draguignan and was won by French rider Laurent Brochard of Castorama. He finished well clear of the field, with Eddy Seigneur second at 1 minute, 20 seconds, and Ronan Pensec third at 1 minute, 26 seconds. The top ten also included Gilles Delion, Christophe Manin, Oscar Pelliccioli, Richard Virenque, Edwig Van Hooydonck, Marc Madiot, and a young Lance Armstrong, underlining the quality of the start list for an early-season French race. Founded in 1969, the Tour du Haut Var quickly became one of the important early-season French races, traditionally held in February in the hills of Provence. For decades, it was a demanding one-day race, valued for its selective terrain and its position as an early test of form before the spring classics. The inaugural edition was won by Raymond Poulidor, and the race’s roll of honor includes major names such as Joop Zoetemelk, Sean Kelly, Charly Mottet, Éric Caritoux, Luc Leblanc, Laurent Jalabert, Davide Rebellin, Philippe Gilbert, Thomas Voeckler, and Nairo Quintana. The event later expanded into a two day stage race and has since been known under names including the Tour Cycliste International du Haut Var, Tour des Alpes Maritimes et du Var, and, more recently, Tour des Alpes Maritimes. This medal was acquired by The Horton Collection in the Fall of 2022 directly from Motorola Team founder Jim Ochowicz as part of a substantial amount of legacy memorabilia.

- [1978 World Championships, Official Race Poster - Race Winner - Gerrie Knetemann](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1978-worlds-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-gerrie-knetemann/) - Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme - 1978 UCI Road World Championships Rad-Weltmeisterschaften - München, Köln, Nürburgring This bold and modernist original poster was produced for the 1978 UCI Road World Championships held across three iconic German venues: Munich, Cologne, and Nürburg. Designed by German graphic artist Feser, the poster embodies the sleek, minimalist aesthetic of 1970s European sports design, featuring a dynamic, blurred wheel image that symbolizes speed, motion, and endurance. Beneath it, vibrant stripes of the UCI rainbow bands arc forward in a sweeping motion. The event took place over two weeks in August 1978 and featured both professional and amateur racers from around the world. At the 1978 World Championships, Dutchman Gerrie Knetemann claimed the men’s elite professional road race title with a time of 7 hours, 32 minutes, 4 seconds over a distance of 274.8 km in Nürburg. Italian star Francesco Moser, fresh from his 1977 world championship victory, finished a close second. Completing the podium was Denmark's Jørgen Marcussen, earning a well-deserved bronze. The amateur men's competition was won by Swiss rider Gilbert Glaus, with Poland’s Krzysztof Sujka taking silver and Switzerland’s Stefan Mutter earning bronze.

- [Campagnolo “Tullio in the Snow” Vintage Poster. c. late 1970s - early 1980s](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/campagnolo-tullio-in-the-snow-vintage-poster-c-late-1970s-early-1980s/) - Campagnolo “Tullio in the Snow” Vintage Poster This striking Campagnolo poster celebrates the company founder, Tullio Campagnolo, battling through the Dolomite snow during the famous 1927 race that inspired his invention of the quick-release. On 11th November 1927, Tullio Campagnolo was on his own, climbing the first ascents of the Croce d’Aune pass. With his hands numbed by the cold, preventing him from unscrewing the wing nuts on his hub to use an easier gear, he had a brainstorm: redesign the lever so that at least four fingers could be used to operate it. The “automatic wing nuts” or, as we now know it, "the quick release" patent was registered on 8 February 1930, the first of over 135 that would follow over the years. Printed in rich brown monochrome, the image shows Tullio fighting his way up the mountain roads, caked in mud and snow, with the classic Campagnolo script logo at the top and his facsimile signature at the bottom. The composition has a strong graphic feel, part historical document and part brand mythology, and would be a powerful focal point in any workshop, office, or cycling-themed room.

- [1992 Tour de l'Avenir - Participant Medal, Race Winner - Herve Garel](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1992-tour-de-lavenir-participant-medal-race-winner-herve-garel/) - Authentic 1992 Tour de l'Avenir Participants Medal from the Motorola Cycling Team This beautiful participant’s medal, produced for the 29ème Tour de l’Avenir, has a wonderful raised full stage-by-stage map on one side, along with fantastic early 90’s stylized lettering on the other. The map shows the race route across northwestern France, beginning with a prologue in Rennes and tracing stages through Flers, Avranches, Saint Hilaire du Harcouët, Plérin sur Mer, Rostrenen, Roscoff, Brest, Fouesnant, Vannes, Pontchâteau, Ancenis, and culminating in Nantes. The 1992 Tour de l’Avenir was won by French rider Hervé Garel of R.M.O., who finished in 36h 18m 43s. His teammate Jean Philippe Dojwa placed second, only 24 seconds behind, with Dutch rider Bart Voskamp third at 32 seconds. The narrow final margins show how competitive the race was, with the top six separated by just over a minute. The race action was spread across a varied route of prologue, road stages, and time trials. Eddy Seigneur won the opening prologue in Rennes; Marcel Wüst took Stage 1; Tristan Hoffman won Stage 2 and later added another stage victory at Roscoff; and R.M.O. won the Team Time Trial from Avranches to Saint Hilaire du Harcouët. Garel’s key move came with his stage victory to Plérin sur Mer, which put him into the center of the general classification battle. The later stages saw wins for François Simon, Léon van Bon, Erik Dekker, Axel Merckx, and Thomas Davy, with Davy's final-stage victory coming in Nantes. First created in 1961 by Jacques Marchand of L'équipe, the Tour de l’Avenir was conceived as a “Tour of the Future,” a proving ground for young riders, amateurs, and, later, developing professionals. The race changed names several times, including Trophée Peugeot de l’Avenir and Tour de la Communauté Européenne, before returning to the Tour de l’Avenir name in 1992. Since 2007, the event has been dedicated to young riders in the under-23 age range. Past winners of the race include Felice Gimondi, Joop Zoetemelk, Greg LeMond, Miguel Indurain, Laurent Fignon, Nairo Quintana, Egan Bernal, and Tadej Pogačar, making the event one of cycling’s great talent spotters. This medal was acquired by The Horton Collection in the Fall of 2022 directly from Motorola Team founder Jim Ochowicz as part of a substantial amount of legacy memorabilia. A Certificate of Authenticity accompanies each Legacy Collection item. Size: 3 1/2 inches (9 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.
- [2001 Vuelta a España Leader's Jersey, Signed by Angel Casero, Race Winner](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2001-vuelta-a-espana-leaders-jersey-signed-by-angel-casero-race-winner/) - 2001 Vuelta Jersey, Signed by Angel Casero after Stage 21 Ángel Casero’s victory in the 2001 Vuelta a España was one of the race’s great late reversals. Riding for Festina, the Spanish time trial specialist stayed close to race leader Óscar Sevilla through the final week, then overturned a 25-second deficit on the last day in Madrid with a decisive ride in the concluding 38-kilometer individual time trial. Casero finished fourth on the stage, but that was enough to secure overall victory in a final time of 70:49:05, winning the Vuelta by 47 seconds over Sevilla, with Levi Leipheimer third. The result gave Casero the only Grand Tour victory of his career and sealed one of the closest and most dramatic overall finishes of the era. Ángel Casero is a Spanish former professional cyclist, born on September 27, 1972, in Albalat dels Tarongers, who built his career around stage racing and time trialing. Racing professionally from the 1990s into the 2000s, he developed into one of Spain’s strongest general classification riders, with the high point of his career coming in 2001 when he won the Vuelta a España. Along the way, he also won the Spanish national road race title in 1998 and again in 1999, and he later rode for teams including Festina, Coast, and Team Bianchi. Casero is remembered above all for his consistency, his strength against the clock, and his ability to deliver the defining Grand Tour victory of his career in one of the closest Vueltas of the era.

- [Hennie Kuiper, 1975 Dutch National Road Race Champion Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/hennie-kuiper-1975-dutch-national-road-race-champion-jersey/) - Henni Kuiper - 1975 Campione Olandese This striking 1975 G.B.C. Frisol jersey was worn in the season when Hennie Kuiper stood at the summit of Dutch cycling. Executed in a bold national palette of red, white, and blue, the jersey has a classic mid-1970s style, with short sleeves, a half-zip front, a high ribbed collar, cleanly finished sleeves, and three pockets on the back with the original buttons. Across the chest, the white G.B.C. FRISOL lettering is rendered in beautiful, tight chain stitching. Combined with the clean horizontal color blocking, it creates a beautifully graphic, unmistakably period look. It is exactly the kind of jersey collectors hope to find, visually powerful, immediately recognizable, and deeply tied to one of the greatest riders of his era. Hennie Kuiper’s 1975 season secured his place among the legends of the sport. That year, riding for Frisol, he won the Dutch National Road Championship and then claimed the World Road Race Championship in Yvoir, Belgium. Kuiper had already announced himself with Olympic gold in the road race at Munich in 1972, and he would go on to build one of the great palmarès in postwar cycling, including victories in four Monuments, Tour of Flanders, Giro di Lombardia, Paris-Roubaix, and Milan-San Remo, along with two second-place finishes in the Tour de France. Jerseys from a rider of this stature, and from such an important season, carry a presence far beyond their already beautiful design. This jersey includes the original label from Bar Augusto. This jersey was acquired directly from the Augusto Gotti family and was part of the collection in the legendary Bar Augusto in Villa d’Alme, Italy. Bar Augusto was a key host to professional and amateur cycling teams from the 1960s through the 1980s. All jerseys are sold unframed. Framed images are display ideas only.

At the back, a cameraman stands behind a large, rotating camera mounted on a tripod, ready to film the passing peloton, while the red interior, detailed wheels, opening hood, spring suspension, and chrome bumpers add to the classic Corgi appeal. Made in Great Britain and marked Renault 16 on the base, a great item for any cycling collection. The Renault 16, first introduced in 1965, was a revolutionary mid-sized family car that garnered widespread acclaim for its innovative hatchback design and front-wheel drive, ultimately winning the “Car of the Year” award in 1966. Corgi Toys has meticulously recreated the car’s distinctive lines, contours, and colors, imbuing it with the unmistakable character of the original. The Mettoy Company of Northampton created the Corgi brand in the UK, which began producing colorful, pressed-metal toys in the 1930s. The name Corgi (after the Welsh dog) was chosen for three reasons: first, because it was short and catchy; secondly, because the models were to be produced in Swansea; and third, because of its strong association with the Royal Family. The first Corgi car models appeared in 1956 and covered British-built saloon cars of the period. Corgi cars included plastic windows for greater authenticity and were sold as "the ones with windows."

- [Eddy Merckx, 1969 Paris-Roubaix](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/eddy-merckx-1969-paris-roubaix/) - Eddy Merckx Paris-Roubaix, 1969 The spring classic Paris-Roubaix is fondly known as the Hell of the North. The race, one of road racing's oldest, is often wet and muddy and takes the riders over many rough cobbled roads. Eddy Merckx attacked here in this cobbled section but did not take the day. Merckx finished in second, 2 minutes 39 seconds behind Walter Godefroot. While he was not the winner on this day, Merckx won Paris-Roubaix three times. He holds an astounding record of 525 victories during his professional cycling career.

Also represented are Eugène Christophe, Émile Georget, Hector Heusghem, Jean Alavoine, and Oscar Egg, with two additional signatures still unidentified. Together, they form a remarkable gathering of prewar champions, Tour contenders, stage winners, record setters, and legends from the heroic age of the sport. The card itself shows Le Pic du Midi d’Ossau, one of the great landmarks of the French Pyrenees, a mountain landscape closely tied to the early mythology of the Tour de France. In 1914, riders still crossed the great passes on primitive roads and fixed-gear machines, under rules that demanded almost unimaginable toughness. The date, the Pyrenean subject, and the riders represented make this card especially powerful. It belongs to the world of the 1914 Tour de France, the final Tour before the First World War, and one of the great prewar editions of the race. All of the postal cards on our site are original, with no reproductions. Many of the cards are quite old and one-of-a-kind, so please look carefully at the photos to determine their condition.

A wonderful addition to any peloton. The Molteni Cycling Team was one of the defining squads of postwar professional cycling. Sponsored by the Italian salami company from Arcore, near Milan, Molteni raced from 1958 through 1976 and became legendary after Eddy Merckx joined in 1971. During the Molteni years, Merckx won the Tour de France in 1971, 1972, and 1974, the Giro d’Italia in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and the Vuelta a España in 1973, along with major Classics and stage races. The team’s leading riders included Eddy Merckx, Gianni Motta, Marino Basso, Rudi Altig, Peter Post, Michelle Dancelli, Joseph Bruyère, Roger Swerts, Herman Van Springel, and Franco Balmamion. With its brown and orange kit, Molteni remains one of cycling’s most instantly recognizable and historically important teams. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal, but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

He wears a light blue short-sleeved jersey, dark shorts, a pale cap with goggles, and a spare tube looped over his shoulders. The rider’s skin tones are rendered in warm browns with dark shadows, which contrast strongly against the cool greys of the sky. Behind him, stylized white outlined clouds and a low line of blue-tinted mountains suggest speed across an open landscape. The lower half of the sheet fades into a soft grey gradient with no printed wording; this poster was produced as a generic blank, leaving ample space at the bottom for a race organizer, sponsor, or shop to overprint their own text. Hofmann’s name appears vertically along the left margin as “W HOFMANN,” identifying the work as part of his output as a painter and graphic artist based in Vienna, known for athletic and travel-themed posters that use bold blocks of color and strong diagonals to convey movement. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters, allowing them to be displayed or framed without compromising their value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction. Year: c. 1947 Artist: Walter Hoffmann Printer: N/A Size: 59 x 84.5 cm ( 23 ¼ x 33 ¼ inches) Posters are sold unframed. Framed images are display ideas only. This is a one-of-a-kind item; please review the photos carefully to determine the condition.

- [Peugeot Cycling Team, Peugeot D3A Van, Dinky Toys, c. 1960s/70s, "small" 1/43 Scale](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/peugeot-cycling-team-peugeot-d3a-van-dinky-toys-c-1960s-70s-small-1-43-scale/) - This charming Dinky Toys van really has "the look. A wonderful addition to any peloton This charming French Dinky Toys Peugeot D3A van, reference 25B, is a classic Peugeot Cycling Team race support vehicle, the kind of compact service van that would have looked perfectly at home in the caravan of mid-century European road racing. Finished in deep green with pale side panels, checkerboard striping, bold Peugeot lettering, and a BP roundel, the model has wonderful period presence. The van does have “flat tires,” a common issue with old rubber wheels after a toy has sat in one position for many years, but this only adds to its authentic, well-loved character. The Peugeot Cycling Team is one of the most important and enduring names in cycling history, with roots stretching back to the sport’s early days and a long record of success in the Tour de France, the Classics, and international road racing. Instantly recognizable by its famous black-and-white checkerboard, Peugeot sponsored generations of great riders, including Tom Simpson, Eddy Merckx, Roger Pingeon, Ferdinand Bracke, Bernard Thévenet, Phil Anderson, Robert Millar, and Stephen Roche. That rich racing heritage makes this little Dinky van especially appealing to collectors. Dinky Toys was one of the great names in early die-cast collecting. Produced by Meccano in both Britain and France, Dinky models became hugely popular from the 1930s through the postwar decades. The company was known for sturdy metal castings, simple but evocative detailing, and a wide range of cars, trucks, buses, military vehicles, aircraft, and commercial vans. French Dinky models, like this Peugeot D3A, are especially admired for their national subject matter and colorful advertising liveries, often capturing the everyday vehicles seen on French roads in the 1950s and 1960s. Today, Dinky Toys are collected both as nostalgic playthings and as miniature documents of automotive, commercial, and graphic design history.

Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

- [Tour de Suisse Leader's Jersey, Giuseppe Fezzardi 1963 Winner](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/tour-de-suisse-leaders-jersey-giuseppe-fezzardi-1963-winner/) - This striking yellow wool 1963 Tour de Suisse leader’s jersey belonged to race winner Giuseppe Fezzardi. It features a structured collar and a 1/4-zip front; the TdS emblem on the chest is rendered in beautiful black chain stitching, with two large front chest pockets and three traditional rear pockets. First run in 1933, the Tour de Suisse established itself as one of the most important stage races on the European calendar, often described as the “fourth Grand Tour.” Positioned in June, it has long served as a key proving ground ahead of the Tour de France, with a demanding route that blends long valley stages, high Alpine climbs, and decisive time trials. Its winners' list reflects that status, featuring many of the sport’s leading champions, and its parcours has consistently rewarded riders capable of excelling across varied terrain. The 1963 edition followed that tradition, unfolding over seven stages, including a split third stage and a key individual time trial. The early part of the race saw shifting leadership, with Italian and Swiss riders trading stage victories as the route moved into more demanding terrain. The decisive moment came during the split third stage into Lugano, where Giuseppe Fezzardi took control of the general classification. He then consolidated his position in the subsequent time trial and held his advantage through the remaining stages. Behind him, Swiss riders ensured a strong home presence, with Rolf Maurer and Attilio Moresi riding consistently to secure second and third overall. Stage victories were spread across a diverse group of riders, reflecting the varied nature of the course, and by the final stage, the general classification had effectively been decided, with Fezzardi securing what would become the most significant victory of his career. The jersey was acquired directly from the Augusto Gotti family and was part of the collection in the legendary Bar Augusto in Villa d’Alme, Italy. Bar Augusto was a key host to professional and amateur cycling teams from the 1960s through the 1980s. Includes the original label and postal card used at Bar Augusto. Size: 2 Chest: 32 inches / 82 cm (16 inches / 41 cm measured armpit to armpit) Length: 26 in / 66 cm Maker: Tricots Albla, Made in France, Wool Please Note: This jersey hung on the wall at Bar Augusto for many years and has “Bar Patina” from exposure to smoke, dust, etc. This jersey also has many small holes.

- [Jan Janssen, Pelforth-Sauvage-Lejeune Team Jersey, late 1967/1968](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/jan-janssen-pelforth-sauvage-lejeune-team-jersey-late-1967-1968/) - Signed by Jan Janssen - Authentic Vintage Team Jersey A striking and highly collectible Pelforth–Sauvage–Lejeune Team jersey from the late 1960s, circa 1967–1968, signed by Jan Janssen. Executed in the bold team colors of yellow, white, and blue, the jersey features classic period construction, including a ribbed collar with contrasting stripe detail, matching ribbed sleeves, a 1/4 zip front, and three back pockets. Across the chest, the PELFORTH and LEJEUNE lettering is rendered in bold black flocking, giving the jersey a strong visual presence and texture. Janssen’s signature appears prominently on the upper chest. The team itself, Pelforth–Sauvage–Lejeune, was one of the leading French professional squads of the 1960s, active from 1960 through 1968. Jan Janssen rode for the team during the peak years of his career, emerging as one of the most complete riders in the peloton. He won the Vuelta a España in 1967 and, most famously, became the first Dutch rider to win the Tour de France in 1968, a victory secured in dramatic fashion in the final time trial. In addition to his overall Tour victory, Janssen won the Tour’s points classification in 1964, 1965, and 1967, and the Vuelta points classification in 1967 and 1968. He won the World Road Race Championships in 1964 and also won Paris-Roubaix in 1967. What makes this jersey particularly interesting, and unusually appealing to collectors, is the absence of “Sauvage” from the team designation. The full team name during this period was Pelforth–Sauvage–Lejeune, reflecting multiple co-sponsors. Size: 3 Chest: 34 inches / 86 cm (17 inches / 43 cm measured armpit to armpit) Length: 25 in / 63.5 cm Maker: N/A - Wool/Poly Blend Each jersey is one of a kind.

- [Lucien Van Impe, 1977 Dauphiné Libéré King of the Mountains Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/lucien-van-impe-1977-dauphine-libere-king-of-the-mountains-jersey/) - This exceptional 1977 Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré King of the Mountains jersey, worn and signed by Lucien Van Impe, is a rare piece from one of cycling’s most important stage races. The distinctive pink wool knit associated with the era's mountain classification, this jersey features a classic short-sleeve silhouette with a ¼-zip front, a clean ribbed collar, and a traditional three-pocket rear construction with the original buttons. The front is adorned with flocked period sponsor patches that have been hand-stitched on, including the Lejeune chest panel and BP shield. The Le Coq Sportif logo is embroidered on the chest and both sleeves. Upon inspection of the inside, we discovered the jersey had been taken in on both sides. Most striking of all, the jersey is signed by Van Impe across the chest, adding a direct and highly personal layer to an already significant garment. First run in 1947, the Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré has long been regarded as the most important preparatory race for the Tour de France. Held in the mountainous Dauphiné region, the race consistently attracts the leading Grand Tour contenders and serves as a reliable indicator of form ahead of July. The 1977 edition was won by Bernard Hinault, marking one of the earliest major victories of his career, with Bernard Thévenet finishing second and Lucien Van Impe third overall. Van Impe also claimed the King of the Mountains classification, underlining his dominance in the high mountains during the weeks leading into the Tour de France. Lucien Van Impe, born on 20 October 1946 in Mere, Belgium, was a legendary climber who dominated the Tour de France throughout the 1970s and early 1980s. His career highlights include overall victory in the 1976 Tour de France and six wins of the prestigious polka-dot mountains classification (1971, 1972, 1975, 1977, 1981, 1983), tying Federico Bahamontes's record. Van Impe also recorded nine individual stage wins at the Tour, showcasing his versatility and endurance. Beyond France, he excelled in the Giro d’Italia, earning back-to-back mountains jerseys in 1982 and 1983, as well as a stage win in 1983. In 1983, he capped off a remarkable career by winning the Belgian national road race championship—a rare feat for a mountain specialist. Over nearly two decades, Van Impe started 15 Tours de France and impressively finished every one, tying the record at the time. Size: 3 Chest: 35 inches / 89 cm (17 ½ inches / 44.5 cm measured armpit to armpit) Length: 28 ½ in / 72 cm Maker: Le Coq Sportif - Made in France, Wool/Poly Blend Each jersey is one of a kind.

- [Francesco Moser, 1975 Italian National Champion Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/francesco-moser-1975-italian-national-champion-jersey/) - A gorgeous Italian National Champion Jersey worn by Moser in 1975. Bright Colors, Beautiful Chain Stitching, Excellent Condition. Francesco “Lo Sceriffo” Moser, born in 1951, is one of Italy’s all-time road greats. He won the 1984 Giro d’Italia, accumulated 23 Giro stage wins, and claimed four points jerseys. He grabbed the rainbow jersey at the 1977 World Championships in San Cristóbal, outsprinting Dietrich Thurau, and he had already been world champion on the track in the individual pursuit in 1976. Moser owned Paris–Roubaix in its cobbled heyday, taking three in a row from 1978 to 1980, a streak matched in the modern era by Mathieu van der Poel’s 2023 to 2025 run. His 1984 was wild: he broke the Hour Record twice in Mexico City, first with 50.808 km, then with 51.151 km four days later, and he won Milan–San Remo. Earlier, in his lone Tour de France in 1975, he won the prologue and the first-ever young rider classification. Add two Il Lombardia wins in 1975 and 1978 and Italian road titles in 1975, 1979, and 1981, and you get a classics boss with real stage race chops. Fun stat: the Giro d’Italia Hall of Fame credits Moser with 273 career victories. Totals vary by counting method, but it gives a good sense of his dominance.

Beyond the signatures, the jersey is a wonderful surviving example of Eastern Bloc racewear from the era. The East German national emblem is sewn prominently at the chest, the sleeves retain interior buttons for attaching arm warmers, and the back is fitted with support straps designed to help carry the weight of loaded rear pockets during competition. The East German team was the dominant force at the 1983 Tour of Slovakia. Bernd Drogan won the overall classification, while East German riders Uwe Ampler, Uwe Raab, Mario Kummer, and Drogan himself accounted for four of the race’s eight stage victories. Taken together, those results made the DDR squad the clear power of that year’s edition. The riders who signed this jersey were among the leading figures of East German amateur cycling. Bernd Drogan was already one of the top riders in the DDR system, while Uwe Ampler and Mario Kummer would go on to become two of the best known East German riders of the 1980s, later winning Olympic gold in the team time trial in 1988. The Tour of Slovakia, known locally as Okolo Slovenska, is Slovakia’s national stage race and one of the longest running events on the Central European cycling calendar. First held in 1954, the race began in Bratislava and grew from a postwar domestic event into an established international stage race on the UCI Europe Tour. Since 2017, it has held 2.1 status, helping attract stronger professional fields and raise its profile beyond Slovakia while preserving its role as the country’s showcase race.

- [1975 World Championships, Official Race Poster - Race Winner - Hennie Kuiper](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1975-world-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-hennie-kuiper/) - Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme - 1975 UCI Road World Championships Rad-Weltmeisterschaften Original Belgian poster for the 1975 UCI Cycling World Championships, a striking piece of late modernist design that uses almost nothing, and still says everything. The title, “Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme 1975,” is set in bold black type, and beneath it a stylised rider, seen head-on, is framed by the five world champion rainbow stripes, a visual shorthand so strong that you recognise the subject before reading a single line of text. The poster is printed in French, with L.V.B. and U.C.I. at the top, and a clean split at the bottom between PISTE and ROUTE, the track and road halves of the week. The schedule printed on the sheet places the track program in the Liège area, while the official track worlds in 1975 were held at Rocourt, which is part of Liège. On the road side, the poster names Mettet and Yvoir, the official host towns for the 1975 UCI Road World Championships, held 27 to 31 August 1975. It also lists the 100 km team time trial and separate amateur and professional road races, matching the documented structure of that year’s road worlds. On the results sheet, 1975 delivers. The men’s professional road race, held August 31, 1975, in Yvoir, was won by Hennie Kuiper, ahead of Roger De Vlaeminck and Jean Pierre Danguillaume. The women’s road race produced a Dutch world champion, Tineke Fopma, with Geneviève Gambillon second and Keetie van Oosten Hage third. A period production credit at the bottom notes it was printed in Belgium by Morjos Printers in Ghent, a small but satisfying detail that anchors the poster in its time and place. If you collect world championships material, this is the kind of piece that works on multiple levels, it documents a specific week in Belgian cycling history, and it stands on its own as a bold, timeless graphic poster. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [1953 Route de France - "Little" Tour de France, Winner - Louis Barés](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1953-route-de-france-little-tour-de-france-winner-louis-bares/) - This vibrant mid-century poster promotes the Route de France, the French amateur and independent rider stage race widely regarded as a “little Tour de France.” The race ran from 1951 to 1990 and was organized by the weekly newspaper Route et Piste under race director Jean Leulliot, who also created Paris–Nice and other major events. Across the top, the text in Dutch reads “Onder de banier van dagblad Het Volk,” or “Under the banner of the daily newspaper Het Volk.” Het Volk was a Ghent-based Belgian daily that heavily used cycle racing in its promotions and later gave its name to the cobbled spring classic, Omloop Het Volk, now Omloop Het Nieuwsblad. The central graphic is a bold map of France in turquoise, with the Route de France course drawn from Paris to Limoges and a chain of named stage towns, including Saint Quentin, Charleville, Épernay, Chaumont, Pougues, Thiers, Mende, Decazeville, Brive, and Pons. At the very top of the map, Oostende and Geraardsbergen are highlighted in red, showing that this edition featured two stages in Belgium. The lower panels announce those cross-border stages in Dutch: a second stage from Saint Quentin to Oostende over 182.5 kilometers, and a third stage via Geraardsbergen to Charleville over 153 kilometers. Printed by the Het Volk photogravure works in Ghent, this poster combines strong red and blue blocks of color, cartoon signboards marking the start in Paris and finish in Limoges, and hand-lettered town names that snake across the map. It is both a charming piece of Route de France history and a vivid example of Belgian promotional design from the early years of the race. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [1903 Tour de France, La Fraicaise Diamant Poster, Featuring Race Winner - Maurice Garin](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1903-tour-de-france-la-fraicaise-diamant-poster-featuring-race-winner-maurice-garin/) - La Française Diamant 1903 Tour de France Poster Featuring the First Tour Winner: Maurice Garin Historic French advertising poster celebrating Cycles Société La Française, marque Diamant, and the very first Tour de France in 1903. Across the top, bold blue-and-white lettering announces the company name, framing a large map of France that dominates the composition. The original 1903 Tour route is traced in red across the country, with the key stage towns carefully marked, and a La Française head badge radiating like a medal from the center of the map. Around this map, the poster presents a true roll of honor for the race. At the bottom center stands Maurice Garin in full length, holding his bicycle. Along the red band beneath him, the text proclaims “1er Garin 2500 kil. en 94 heures, Le Tour de France,” celebrating his overall victory. In the inaugural Tour de France, Garin covered approximately 2,428 kilometers in just over 94 hours, becoming the first Tour de France champion and etching his name into cycling legend. In oval laureled medallions around the map, the other top finishers are shown. On the left are Lucien Pothier, marked second, and Rodolfo Muller, marked fourth. On the right are Fernand Augereau, third, and Jean Fischer, fifth. All five rode for La Française, making this poster both a celebration of the race and a powerful advertisement for the team and its machines. Along the lower edge of the sheet, finely drawn images present a La Française road racing bicycle on one side and a La Française motorcycle on the other, with Garin between them. Together with the large map and medal-like portraits, they reinforce the message that La Française supplied both the victorious riders and the cutting-edge technology of the day. Soft pastel background tones, careful line work, and ornate lettering give the poster the feel of an official commemorative document as much as a commercial piece. For collectors, this is a beautiful poster tied directly to the 1903 Tour de France, capturing the very first edition of the race, the complete top five, and the dominance of La Française Diamant at the dawn of grand tour history. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [1959 Tour de France - Spar, Musette Bag - Race Winner - Federico Bahamontes](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1959-tour-de-france-spar-musette-bag-race-winner-federico-bahamontes/) - Long before each team had its own branded musettes, the Tour organization provided them to teams. 50+ year-old musettes like this one are getting progressively tougher to come by with each passing year. This bag is in excellent condition and still has the two original buttons. The 1959 Tour de France was won by Federico Bahamontes of Spain, who became the first Spanish rider ever to win the Tour, and he underlined his dominance by also taking the mountains classification. The race was shaped by Bahamontes’s strength in the high mountains and by the internal rivalry among the French favorites, with Henry Anglade finishing second overall and Jacques Anquetil third. In the other main categories, André Darrigade won the points classification, Belgium won the team classification, and Gérard Saint was awarded the combativity prize, making the 1959 edition memorable both for Bahamontes’s historic breakthrough and for the strong showing of the French and Belgian squads.

- [1932 French National Track Championships an Art Deco Beauty!](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1932-french-national-track-championships-an-art-deco-beauty/) - Beautiful Art Deco poster for the French National Track Championships at the Parc des Princes velodrome in Paris, held on Sunday 17 July 1932. A powerful track cyclist, seen from below, as he carves up the steep banking, wearing a vivid red jersey and black shorts, with muscular bare legs and shoes clipped into the pedals. The rider is framed by a blue summer sky and, in the infield below, a green football pitch, reminding us that the Parc des Princes served both football and cycling. The artwork is signed in the upper left corner. Large black Art Deco-style lettering spells out “Parc des Princes” beneath the artwork, with the full program printed in French below. The meeting features “La grande finale du Championnat de France de Vitesse entre Michard, Faucheux et Gérardin,” the grand final of the French sprint championship between Lucien Michard, Lucien Faucheux, and Louis Gérardin. The race results show that Louis Gérardin won the 1932 professional title ahead of Michard and Faucheux, the exact trio billed on this poster. A second headline announces “La grande revanche du Championnat de France de Demi fond sur 100 kil. derrière grosses motos,” the big rematch of the French motor paced championship over 100 kilometers behind the big motorcycles. The riders listed include Georges Paillard, Robert Grassin, Charles Lacquehay, Raynaud, Maréchal, and Auguste Wambst, all leading French stayers of the interwar period. Georges Paillard, in particular, was already a star, having won the professional UCI motor-paced world championship in 1929 and again in 1932, and holding multiple French demi-fond titles during this period. The venue itself was newly modernised when this poster was issued. The Parc des Princes had just undergone a major rebuild in 1931 and 1932, completed in April 1932 with a capacity of about 40,000 spectators and a shortened velodrome track of approximately 454 meters, down from the original 666-meter circuit. Throughout the first half of the twentieth century, the Parc des Princes was one of the central arenas of French cycle sport, and it regularly hosted the Tour de France finish, which underscores the prestige of the national championship meeting held there. Combining dynamic Art Deco design, the names of the top French sprinters of the 1930s, and the historic setting of the Parc des Princes velodrome, this poster is a superb visual piece of cycling history. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

The images are all stamped by either Miroir du Cyclisme or Miroir-Sprint; many have publication crop marks or show the page and magazine issue the photo was used in.

Miroir du Cyclisme was a French monthly magazine, a photo-focused wonderland of cycling news and historical articles for 35 years, from 1960 to 1994. The companion publication, Miroir-Sprint, came out weekly and reported on news of various sports from 1946 to 1971. In the era before streaming and on-demand viewing, publications like Miroir were how fans kept up on racing results, followed their favorite riders, and stayed current on all things cycling.

- [1981 World Championships, Official Race Poster, Winner - Freddy Maertens](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1981-world-championships-official-race-poster-winner-freddy-maertens/) - 1981 World Cycling Championships - Czechoslovakia Official Race Poster Race Winner - Freddy Maertens This striking poster was created for the 1981 World Cycling Championships in Czechoslovakia, a rare year when the country hosted both the road worlds in Prague and the track worlds in Brno. The design is a masterclass in late modernist graphics: a rider reduced to concentric arcs that shift from deep red through orange and yellow to white, all set against a dark green field. Two pale circles suggest the wheels, while a smaller blue disc balances the composition; the image reads instantly as a cyclist in motion. At the bottom, the typography angles upward with “1981 World Cycling Championships Czechoslovakia”, flanked by the UCI emblem and the crests of the Czechoslovak sports and cycling federations. A credit line in Czech along the lower edge identifies the designer as Karel Čapek and notes that the poster was issued by the Organising Committee of the 1981 World Championships and printed in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. On the road circuit in Prague, Freddy Maertens of Belgium won the men’s professional road race over 281.4 km, ahead of Giuseppe Saronni and Bernard Hinault. The women’s road race was won by Ute Enzenauer of West Germany, with Jeannie Longo and Connie Carpenter taking silver and bronze. The amateur men’s road race went to Andrei Vedernikov of the Soviet Union, while the 100 km team time trial was won by East Germany. A few days later at the Brno velodrome, the track worlds crowned more champions: in the men’s professional events, Danny Clark won the keirin, Kōichi Nakano took the sprint, Alain Bondue the individual pursuit, Urs Freuler the points race, and René Kos the motor paced title. On the women’s side, American Sheila Young won the sprint and Nadezhda Kibardina the individual pursuit. For collectors, this poster sits at the intersection of cycling history and high graphic design. It captures an important championship year in Eastern Europe and showcases the bold, abstract visual language that defined many sporting posters from behind the Iron Curtain. The deep green background and vivid color gradients make it a standout in any collection. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

- [Pour la Maillot Jaune -  For the Yellow Jersey -  1940 French Movie Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/pour-la-maillot-jaune-for-the-yellow-jersey-1940-french-movie-poster/) - Pour le Maillot Jaune - For the Yellow Jersey Starring Albert Préjean and Meg Lemonnier Bright, dramatic, and unmistakably Tour de France, this original film poster promotes the 1940 French cycling feature Pour le maillot jaune, a romantic story set against the pull of the yellow jersey. Across the top, the stars are named in sweeping red letters: “Albert Préjean, Meg Lemonnier,” and the composition immediately leans into classic-cinema glamour. The two leads appear in an idealised portrait, cheek to cheek, framed inside a bold red heart against a vivid yellow background, the kind of design that grabs you from across the room. Across the middle, the poster pivots from romance to race. A banner reads “Tour de France cycliste, arrivée,” calling out the finish line moment, and the lower image is a photographic montage showing a full line of riders with their racing bicycles, captured just before the start. The title at the bottom, Pour le Maillot Jaune, lands in huge letters, with Maillot Jaune dominating the line, making the film’s central symbol impossible to miss. Printed in Belgium and rich in warm reds, deep yellows, and sepia-toned racing imagery, the poster perfectly captures the mood of early 1940s French cinema and the public’s fascination with the Tour de France. It is a wonderful crossover piece for collectors of vintage cycling or classic film. A lovely, authentic period poster that celebrates both the romance of the road and the magic of the maillot jaune.

- [1998 World Championships, Official Race Poster - Race Winner, Oskar Camenzind](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1998-world-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-oskar-camenzind/) - Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme Campeonatos del Mundo de Ciclismo 1998 1998 World Cycling Championships - Valkenburg, Maastricht, Margraten Original event poster for the 1998 UCI Road World Championships held in the Limburg region of the Netherlands. The design is clean and contemporary, printed on a bright white ground with large red and blue shapes that are enlarged elements of the official logo, which depicts a stylised cyclist in motion at the center of the composition above the text “Valkenburg Maastricht Margraten 1998”. The upper left corner carries the legend “World Cycling Championships – October 6–11, 1998 – Valkenburg, Maastricht, Margraten, The Netherlands”, clearly tying the piece to this important edition of the Worlds. Down the left side run sponsor marks for Rabobank, Amstel Bier, Lete Acqua Minerale, and VISA. On the right are two small action photographs – one of a race in progress, one of packed spectators lining the course – along with additional partner logos and a narrow vertical band in the world champion rainbow colours near the bottom edge. This championship is remembered for several significant results. In the elite men’s road race in Valkenburg, Swiss rider Oskar Camenzind claimed the rainbow jersey ahead of Peter Van Petegem and Michele Bartoli. The elite men’s time trial from Maastricht to Vilt was won by Spaniard Abraham Olano, with Melcior Mauri and Serhiy Honchar taking silver and bronze. In the elite women’s road race, Lithuanian star Diana Žiliūtė took gold, while home favourite Leontien van Moorsel won the elite women’s time trial earlier in the week, adding to Dutch pride on home roads. Visually strong yet understated, this poster is an excellent piece for anyone collecting World Championship material. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [Eddy Merckx, Signed 1976 Milan-San Remo Campagnolo Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/eddy-merckx-signed-1976-milan-san-remo-campagnolo-poster/) - While we in the United States were getting ready to celebrate the Bicentennial, across the ocean, Eddy was already celebrating, albeit for a different reason. In 1976, Eddy won Milano-San Remo for the seventh time. How many pros would be elated to win this Monument even once, let alone seven times? This is by far our favorite Campagnolo poster. The photographer captured the pride in Eddy’s eyes and the sheer joy on the face of cycling’s elder statesman, Tullio Campagnolo, as the tifosi celebrated Merckx’s victory at one of Italy’s most important races. Campagnolo, founded by Tullio Campagnolo, is the famed Italian component maker long associated with champions like Merckx. With 525 career victories to his name, Eddy Merckx is the most successful rider in cycling history. Highlights of his storied career include winning eleven Grand Tours, all five Monuments, three professional road World Championships, the Hour Record, every major one-day race (except Paris-Tours), and numerous track racing victories. A vibrant crowd scene, rich color, and a joyous moment from one of Italy’s most important races make this a standout display piece for Merckx and Campagnolo collectors alike.

It shows De Vlaeminck riding away from the camera while his wife, Marleen, in a dress and heels, passes up what appears to be a glass bottle of water, or perhaps wine, to take the edge off his pain. De Vlaeminck wore the green jersey at the 1971 Tour de France from Stage 3 until he lost it at Stage 7 to Gerban Karstens. Unfortunately, De Vlaeminck crashed hard and rode heavily bandaged for a few more stages until the pain became unbearable, and he abandoned at Stage 11.

- [Eddy Merckx, 1972 Hour Record Collectible Plate](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/eddy-merckx-1972-hour-record-collectible-plate-2/) - Eddy Merckx Hour Record Collectible Plate Eddy Merckx meticulously planned his attempt to break the Hour Record for October 1972 following a ten-day break from criterium racing to recuperate and prepare. The attempt occurred on October 25th in Mexico City at the outdoor Agustin Melgar Olympic Velodrome located at 2,300m (7,500 ft). Mexico City was chosen due to its higher altitude, which reduces air resistance. Merckx arrived on the 21st to prepare, but two days were lost due to rain. The attempt commenced at 8:46 am local time, with Merckx surpassing the record pace by twenty-eight seconds in the first ten kilometers. However, he started too fast and struggled as the attempt progressed. Despite this setback, he recovered and set a distance of 49.431 km (31 mi), breaking the world record. After the victory, he said it was "the hardest ride I have ever done." With 525 career victories to his name, Merckx is the most successful rider in cycling history. Highlights of his storied career include winning eleven Grand Tours, all five Monument races, three professional road World Championships, the Hour Record, every major one-day race (except Paris-Tours), and many track racing victories.

Jacques Anquetil signed this program from the 1956 edition on the cover in the upper right corner. While Anquetil did not race in the 1956 Paris Six, we can only guess that he must have been in attendence. We can just imagine the excitement of the fan lucky enough to get the autograph on their program of the young professional who would go on to win his first Tour de France the following year. Jacques Anquetil was the first rider to win the Tour de France five times and is still one of only four riders to complete the stunning record. Anquetil won the Tour de France in 1957, 1961, 1962, 1963, and 1964. In addition, he is one of only six cyclists to have won all three Grand Tours.

Our lions were sourced over the years from riders, teams, and other collectors. Authentic podium lions have never been easy to acquire, as many were given away to family, friends, and the children of riders. They look great when on display and are among our most requested items to see when we have visitors to our home. And yes, all podium lions in our care are cage-free and house-trained. The Lion made its first appearance in 1987 as a marketing tool by the Yellow Jersey corporate sponsor, the French Bank Crédit Lyonnais (now called LCL). The lion, a long-time symbol of the bank, was the perfect thing to turn into an iconic stuffed animal to award the Yellow Jersey winners. There is something charming about these lions, particularly those from 10 to 30+ years ago. Each year, they are slightly different. Even within a year, the details of a given lion's face are quite distinct. Size: 17 inches tall (43 cm) Each lion is a unique and one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

Julien Stevens is a Belgian former professional cyclist, born in Mechelen on February 25, 1943, who was one of the strongest Belgian riders of the late 1960s and 1970s.

- [Daniel Rebour - Original Art, Maury Fitting, 1948](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/daniel-rebour-original-art-maury-fitting-1948-2/) - Like reporters today, Rebour went to races and shows to document the latest innovations in cycling technology. He then illustrated the latest parts and gadgets for magazine features so fans and potential customers could stay up to date on the current technology. This Daniel Rebour drawing offers a crisp close-up of a Maury fitting from 1948. We have not yet been able to identify its exact purpose, but it is impossible not to smile at the design; it looks like a little face, mouth open in surprise, a tiny piece of mid-century hardware with real personality. Maury, A. (André Maury), was a Paris-based constructeur active from the 1930s through the 1950s, known for cyclotouring and randonneur machines, and for the kind of practical fittings, such as front bag mounts, that Rebour documented in 1948. Ink on Paper Size: 4 x 2 ¼ in (10 x 5.5 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.
- [Daniel Rebour - Original Art, 1948 Singer Stem](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/daniel-rebour-original-art-1948-singer-stem/) - Like reporters today, Rebour went to races and shows to document the latest innovations in cycling technology. He then illustrated the latest parts and gadgets for magazine features so fans and potential customers could stay up to date on the latest technology. This is a fantastic drawing that highlights the elegant, innovative craftsmanship of a simple, lightweight Singer stem, with the expander bolt hidden beneath a clean, fitted cap. Alex Singer was one of the great Paris area constructeurs of the mid-century randonneur world, a small workshop known for building elegant, custom cyclotouring machines and for developing distinctive house parts to match. Founded by Alex Singer in the late 1930s in Levallois-Perret, the shop became closely associated with long-distance French riding culture and with the practical, beautifully finished solutions that era demanded, clean lines, thoughtful details, and components designed to work flawlessly for hours on end. In later decades, under the guidance of Ernest Csuka and the Singer workshop team, the name became especially linked to refined, purpose-built hardware, including stems and fittings that hide their clamping hardware for a smoother, more sculpted look, exactly the kind of quiet innovation Rebour loved to document. Ink on Paper Size: 7 ¾ x 5 ¾ in (19.5 x 14.5 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

- [Jacques Anquetil on Mur de Grammont: 1957 Tour de France, Stage 5](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/jacques-anquetil-on-mur-de-grammont-1957-tour-de-france-stage-5/) - Jacques Anquetil on Mur de Grammont 1957 Tour de France, Stage 5 The 1957 edition of the Tour de France represented a Tour of flux. There was no clear pre-race favorite, although with the course having a significant amount of climbing, Bahamontes and Gaul were given a tepid nod. The French team was missing both Louison Bobet and Raphael Géminiani, so it was decided to build the team around the young upstart Jacques Anquetil. The gamble paid in spades. By the end of the Tour, the French team had won 12 stages and had one of their riders in yellow every stage except one. Jacques Anquetil made his mark by winning the race in what would ultimately be the first of 5 times. Stage 5 of the 1957 Tour included the torturous Mur de Grammont in Belgium. This climb was and remains to this day to be very popular with the fans. People line the climb by the thousands, and the cheers are deafening. In this image, we see Anquetil alone, ascending the slope of this difficult, pave covered climb. Each image in the Vintage Print Series has been reproduced from an original photographic print or negative in The Horton Collection archives. Each has been carefully restored to remove dust, water stains, fingerprints, or other wear and tear. Lithograph printing was done by AMP Printing in Dublin, California, on Daiei TopKote 111-pound acid-free, archival-quality stock using a Heidelberg press. Each print comes packaged in a crystal clear sealed bag with a descriptive insert. Beautifully packaged for gift giving. Litho Size: 8 in. x 10 in.
- [Velodrome de Rennes, Cycles Gladiator Poster, c. 1890s](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/velodrome-de-rennes-cycles-gladiator-poster-c-1890s/) - Vélodrome de Rennes - Ouvert Tous les Jour Rennes Velodrome - Open Every Day This charming lithographic poster promotes the Vélodrome de Rennes, Cycles Gladiator, and the clothing house À la Grande Maison, in Rennes, France. A bright red and deep blue background frames a fashionable couple riding a tandem bicycle, the man in short trousers, patterned shirt, and flat cap, the woman in a billowing green split cycling skirt and orange blouse, her hair flying in the wind as they speed along. A small dog runs excitedly beside them, adding a playful touch. At the top left, a large yellow ribbon reads “Vélodrome de Rennes, Ouvert tous les jours,” while the clothing shop’s address, “1, Rue de Toulouse, Rennes,” is printed along the upper edge. At the bottom, the word “Gladiator” is repeated, highlighting the association with Gladiator bicycles. Gladiator was one of the important French bicycle makers of the period. The Gladiator Cycle Company was founded in 1891 by Alexandre Darracq and Paul Aucoq at Le Pré Saint Gervais near Paris and became part of a larger industrial group with Clément and Humber that produced bicycles, tricycles, quadricycles and later motorised vehicles. The Vélodrome de Rennes itself is part of a long sporting tradition in the city. Rennes has maintained a velodrome, known in modern times as the Vélodrome de Rennes or Stade du Commandant Bougouin, among its principal sports facilities. The venue has been used for cycling and other events, and, more recently, has even hosted football matches when local clubs needed a larger or alternative ground, such as Coupe de France fixtures relocated to the Vélodrome de Rennes. This poster captures an earlier era in that tradition, when the track promoted itself as “open every day” and used joyful cycling imagery to attract both riders and spectators. With its tandem couple, racing dog, rich red-and-blue colour fields, and finely handled decorative lettering, this poster is a lovely example of French cycling and commercial art from the velodrome era in Brittany, and a delightful piece for any cycling collector. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters so they can be displayed or framed without compromising value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction.

- [1963 Tour de France – Race Official’s Car Flag - Jacques Anquetil - Full Length Dowell](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1963-tour-de-france-race-officials-car-flag-jacques-anquetil-full-length-dowell/) - 1963 Tour de France Car Flag, 50th Edition of the Tour Race Winner: Jacques Anquetil This flag comes with the original full-length dowel, complete with the ball on top. Combined with a great year and Anquetil’s win, this is a stunning display piece. In a tradition that started with the first Tour de France in 1903, these flags were affixed to wood dowels and placed in special holders on race official cars. These flags were used well into the 1960s. For 20+ years after that, the flags were used by officials and course marshals to warn riders of oncoming danger. What is particularly appealing is during the period from post-WWII until the late 1960s, the flags had the year clearly visible. As time has marched on, the desirability of these flags has grown, with particular interest given to the years where the winner was also considered a great champion. Jacques Anquetil entered the 1963 Tour de France as the clear favorite, having demonstrated strong form with victories in Paris-Nice, the Dauphiné Libéré, the Critérium, and the Vuelta a España earlier in the season. With three Tour wins already to his name, he aimed to secure a fourth. The race organizers, seemingly intent on challenging his dominance, shortened the time trials—Anquetil’s strongest discipline. Despite this, he finished in the lead, 3’35” ahead of Federico Bahamontes, who claimed the King of the Mountains title. Rik Van Looy topped the Points Classification. Flag Size: 24 x 17 1/2 in (61 x 44.5 cm) Stick Length: 311/2 in (80 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please review the photos carefully to determine the condition.

- [French National Champions ride La Francaise Diamant Bikes - Emile Georget & Emile Froil](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/french-national-champions-ride-la-francaise-diamant-bikes-emile-georget-emile-froil/) - La Française Diamant, Georget and Friol - 1910 Champions of France Glorious early twentieth-century advertising poster for La Française Diamant, one of the great French bicycle makers of the Belle Époque. Across the top, the legend reads “Les Champions de France sur La Française Diamant”, announcing that France’s national champions race on La Française Diamant bicycles. On the track, two riders charge toward the viewer. On the left is Émile Georget, identified as “Georget (Route)”, and on the right is Émile Friol, labelled “Friol (Piste)”. Both wear the French national champion jersey, blue, white, and red, with black shorts and brown racing shoes. They ride elegant La Française Diamant machines with the firm’s crest proudly displayed on the head tube, and the crest is repeated as a large badge in the lower-left corner. The setting is a velodrome drawn in clean bands of color: brown racing surface, bright green infield, and a simple tree line under a clear blue sky. The composition keeps the focus on the two “Émiles” and their bicycles, underlining the message that La Française dominates both road and track. The printer’s line at the bottom credits Marcial, Goffin & Cie, Paris, a noted lithographic house of the period. La Française Diamant, founded in the 1890s, produced high-quality bicycles and later motorcycles, and backed a successful professional road team before the First World War. Georget and Friol were exactly the kind of riders that gave the brand its prestige. Émile Georget was the French national road champion in 1910 and won long-distance epics such as Bordeaux–Paris and Paris–Brest–Paris, while Émile Friol was one of the dominant sprinters of his generation, a multiple French national sprint champion, and twice a world professional sprint champion. Celebrating a road champion and a world-class track sprinter in their tricolour jerseys, this poster is a superb piece of pre-war French cycling art and a centerpiece for any cycling collection. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

Wearing the iconic rainbow jersey as reigning World Champion, Maertens is shown leading a fierce group of riders in a moment that perfectly reflects the intensity and drama of the Spring Classics. Freddy Maertens is a Belgian cycling icon and widely considered one of the top riders of all time, distinguished by his exceptional victories during the 1970s and early 1980s. Renowned for his sprinting prowess, Maertens clinched the Tour de France Green Jersey in 1976, 1978, and 1981, showcasing his unparalleled speed and agility. Maertens was the overall winner of the Vuelta a España in 1977 and ended his career with 36 Grand Tour Stage wins. His dominance extended beyond stage races to one-day classics, where he secured victories in the Tour of Flanders, Paris-Nice, Gent-Wevelgem, and many more. Maertens' stellar career includes two wins at the World Championships, where he earned the rainbow jersey in 1976 and 1981, further solidifying his status among the cycling greats.

- [2006 Six Days of Gent, Official Race Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2006-six-days-of-gent-official-race-poster/) - Zesdaagse van Vlaanderen, Gent Six Day 2001 Poster Striking original poster for the Zesdaagse van Vlaanderen, Gent, the legendary Six Day of Flanders held at the Kuipke velodrome in Citadelpark, Ghent. The design is bold and minimal, built around movement and color rather than cluttered text. At the top, elegant lettering reads “zes 6 daagse van vlaanderen, gent”, with the oversized red 6 dominating the composition and instantly signaling the Six-day format. The main image is a blurred, almost painterly photograph of two riders hurtling around the steep wooden track. The lead rider, in a white helmet and jersey, is caught low over the bars as he drives out of the banking, while a rival chases in a streak of color behind. The track surface dissolves into bands of orange and yellow, with a deep blue strip along the lower edge that suggests the blue safety band at the bottom of a velodrome. The deliberate motion blur gives the whole poster a sense of speed and noise, perfectly evoking the atmosphere of a packed Six-day night. Along the bottom, a black band carries the event dates “20–25 NOV” (2001), ticket information, and the venue name KUIPKE, Citadelpark, Gent in clear white and red lettering, with the event website and the Topsport Vlaanderen logo nearby. This poster relates to the 2001 edition of the Gent Six Day, a classic year in which the team of Matthew Gilmore and Scott McGrory took overall victory, ahead of Bruno Risi with Kurt Betschart and Etienne De Wilde with Andreas Kappes. Gilmore and McGrory were among the dominant Six-day specialists of the early 2000s, adding Gent to a string of wins that season. The Kuipke itself is one of the most famous indoor tracks in Europe, a tight 166.66-meter board track known for its steep banking, intense racing, and intimate atmosphere. With its clean typography, vivid sense of motion, and direct connection to a classic Gilmore-McGrory victory, this poster is a wonderful piece for any collection focused on Six-day racing. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters, allowing them to be displayed or framed without compromising their value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction. Year: 2001 Artist: N/A Imp: N/A Size: 49.5 x 60.5 cm (19 ½ x 23 ¾ inches) - Linen Backed Archival Mounting This is a one-of-a-kind item; please review the photos carefully to determine the condition.

- [Lance Armstrong, Signed Lance Armstrong Foundation Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/lance-armstrong-signed-lance-armstrong-foundation-jersey/) - A fantastic display item - Signed Lance Armstrong Foundation Jersey Lance Armstrong is an American former professional cyclist whose career combined extraordinary success, a celebrated comeback from cancer, and eventual disgrace. As a rider, he won the 1993 UCI Road World Championship, took bronze in the 2000 Olympic time trial, and became internationally famous after returning from advanced testicular cancer to win seven consecutive Tour de France titles from 1999 through 2005, though those titles were later stripped after doping findings. Off the bike, Armstrong founded the Lance Armstrong Foundation in 1997, using his own cancer experience to build one of the most visible cancer support charities in the United States and to raise public awareness through the foundation’s widely recognized yellow Livestrong wristbands. The Lance Armstrong Foundation, now known as the Livestrong Foundation, is a nonprofit focused on improving the lives of people affected by cancer, especially by helping patients, survivors, and families navigate the physical, emotional, and practical burdens of the disease. Its mission today is to unite, inspire, and empower people affected by cancer through free support services, survivorship resources, advocacy, fertility assistance, and programs such as Livestrong at the YMCA. The organization raises money through direct donations, monthly giving, peer-to-peer and community fundraisers, branded merchandise, and challenge events in which participants walk, run, or ride to support cancer survivors.

- [Lance Armstrong & Sean Yates, Signed 1996 Motorola Team Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/lance-armstrong-sean-yates-signed-1996-motorola-team-jersey/) - Motorola Cycling Team Jersey - Signed by both Lance Armstrong & Sean Yates Lance Armstrong is an American former professional cyclist whose career included major victories, a celebrated comeback from testicular cancer, and a later fall from grace after doping sanctions. He won the 1993 UCI Road World Championship in Oslo and later became one of the most famous riders in the sport through his string of Tour de France victories from 1999 through 2005, achievements that were later annulled. In 1997, following his cancer diagnosis and treatment, Armstrong founded the Lance Armstrong Foundation, using his personal experience to help build one of the most visible cancer support organizations in the United States. Sean Yates is a British former professional cyclist who was one of Motorola’s most experienced and respected riders during the team’s 1991 to 1996 run. Already an established professional before joining Motorola, Yates built a reputation as a powerful rouleur and dependable road captain, and over the course of his career, he won a stage of the Tour de France in 1988, a stage of the Vuelta a España the same year, and the overall Tour of Belgium in 1989. While riding for Motorola, he became the third British rider ever to wear the yellow jersey in the Tour de France when he took the race lead after Stage 6 in 1994, a moment that remains one of the standout achievements of his long career. He retired in 1996 after racing 12 Tours de France, leaving behind a reputation as one of Britain’s toughest and most respected professionals of his era. The Motorola Cycling Team was one of the most important early American backed squads in European professional racing, serving as the successor to the pioneering 7 Eleven team and competing under the Motorola name from 1991 through 1996. Managed by Jim Ochowicz, it helped prove that a U.S. sponsored team could succeed at the highest level of the sport, and its roster included major figures such as Sean Yates, Andy Hampsten, Steve Bauer, Johan Bruyneel, Álvaro Mejía, and Lance Armstrong, who turned professional with Motorola in 1992. The team earned significant results, including stage wins in the Tour de France, Mejía’s overall victory in the 1993 Volta a Catalunya, and some of Armstrong’s earliest major achievements, including his 1993 world title and Tour stage win, making Motorola a crucial bridge between the first wave of American cycling in Europe and the global prominence the sport would reach in the following decade.

As an Italian rider with a deep respect for his home country’s Grand Tour, he was often quoted for his eloquent descriptions of what he described as the most special, honored victory of his career, the 1934 Giro d’Italia. He gained the nickname of “Human Locomotive” for his enduring ability to hammer away on flat races. In 1930, he won his first Italian National Road Race Championships, the first of five incredible straight wins. That same year, he came second in the Tour de France after Italy’s leader, Alfredo Binda, proved in poor form. The Frenchman, André Leducq, won the race. In 1931, Guerra won four stages of the Giro d’Italia but not the final victory. In this Giro, he was the first rider who wore the pink jersey. The same year, he won the world cycling championship. In 1933, Guerra was again second in the Tour de France and won the Milan–San Remo. Still, his most tremendous success, by far, was 10 stage victories at the 1934 Giro d’Italia and the general classification. He was also second in the world championship. Guerra set a record for victories in a single year that was beaten only in the 1970s. After retirement, he worked as a team manager for riders like Hugo Koblet and Charly Gaul.

The race was won by mountain specialist Lucien Van Impe in a battle with the previous winners, Bernard Thevenet and Joop Zoetemelk. Zoetemelk won three high mountain stages, including Alpe d’Huez and Puy de Dome, but this Tour became known for when the young Directeur Sportif of Van Impe, Cyrille Guimard, threatened to run Van Impe off the road with the Team Car if he didn’t attack. Van Impe then attacked and won the Tour. The revelation of the Tour, however, was Freddy Maertens, who, in his first Tour, won eight stages and the points classification and led the general classification for ten days. Five-time winner Eddy Merckx did not join in the 1976 Tour de France because he was injured. 1975 winner Bernard Thévenet left the race in the 19th stage, but at that point, it was already clear that Van Impe would win the race. The mountains classification was won by Giancarlo Bellini with 170 points, only one point ahead of Lucien Van Impe. The young rider classification was won by Enrique Martínez Heredia. Heredia had already won the Tour de l’Avenir in 1974 but never broke through after this win. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers that are affixed to the windshield. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, the majority of the plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible.

- [Musette Bag, Le Soir -  Paris-Bruxelles,  c. 1952](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/musette-bag-le-soir-paris-bruxelles-c-1952/) - A scarce early 1950s musette, boldly printed LE SOIR / PARIS-BRUXELLES, with all the graphic presence and straightforward utility that define the best period race bags. Bags of this era are genuinely hard to find today, as most were used, worn out, and discarded, making this a rare survivor linked to one of cycling’s legendary races. Paris-Brussels is one of the oldest events on the international cycling calendar, first run in 1893. Over time, it became one of the great long-distance Franco-Belgian road races, with the earliest editions stretching to enormous distances, nearly 400 km in its inaugural running and often well over 400 km before the First World War. Among its most notable winners were Octave Lapize, who won three straight editions from 1911 to 1913; Félix Sellier, who matched that feat with three consecutive victories from 1922 to 1924; and later stars such as Eddy Merckx, who won the race in 1973 after its return to the calendar. In the modern era, the event continues as Brussels Cycling Classic, preserving the legacy of one of the sport’s oldest and most storied one-day races. Le Soir, the major Belgian French language newspaper, is tied to the long–running Paris–Bruxelles race. Founded in 1887 and based in Brussels, Le Soir was one of the city’s best-known daily papers, Size: 12 ½ x 8 ½ inches (32 x 21.5 cm) This item is one of a kind; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

This little vehicle is just what you need. The Fonderie Roger made this Waterman vehicle, which has a distinctive shape and great colors. Founded in 1930 by Henri Roger in Paris, Fonderie Roger began producing toy cyclists in the 1950s. The early models, crafted from a zinc alloy called zamak, featured separate bases that often went missing, leaving the riders unable to stand upright. This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular. By the mid-1960s, the factory relocated to Egreville, France, where it produced thousands of cyclists annually, primarily for markets in France, Belgium, and Italy. Following Henri’s retirement in 1960, his son Pierre Roger took over the business. Under Pierre’s leadership, the company expanded its product line to include toy cars marketed under the PR label. Today, the Foundrie Roger continues the tradition of crafting die-cast metal cyclists with the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship. Maker: Fonderie Roger Diecast Metal, Zamak Size: 4 1/4" inches long (11 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

Team mechanic who lost the new plaque? Big fan of Bernard Thevenet, who won in '75? Sadly, we will never know the whole story. In the 1974 Tour de France, Eddy Merckx, having emerged as the pre-race favorite following his triumph at the 1974 Giro d'Italia, secured his fifth Tour victory with a comfortable lead of 8'04". Raymond Poulidor claimed second place, while Vicente Lopez Carril finished third. Patrick Sercu clinched the Points classification, Domingo Perurena the Mountains, and Barry Hoban the Sprints. Merckx's fifth Tour win marked a historic achievement, equaling the record set by Jacques Anquetil. Impressively, he had triumphed in all five Tours he had entered. This victory marked several new records for Merckx: he amassed a total of 32 stage victories, surpassing Andre Leducq's previous record of 25, and became the first cyclist to conquer the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, and Tour de Suisse in a single year. Following his Tour de France triumph in 1974, Merckx won the World Championships, securing his status as the first cyclist to achieve the illustrious Triple Crown of Cycling. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshield. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, most plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible. Made of Plastic Size: 19 ¼ x 9 ½ inches (49 x 24 cm This is a one-of-a-kind item, please review photos carefully to determine condition. Plaque has been altered to read 1975 from the original 1974.

- [1923 Cycles Automoto & Pneus Hutchinson Team Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1923-cycles-automoto-pneus-hutchinson-team-advertising-poster-2/) - 1923 Cycles Automoto - Hutchinson Tires Cycling Team This striking French Automoto and Hutchinson poster reads as a showroom wall brought to life. At the center, the words “Nos coureurs” (our riders) anchor a bold, clover-shaped arrangement of rider portraits, each name tucked neatly into its own roundel, giving the piece the feel of a team lineup, part roll call, part fan display. Around the margins, crisp mechanical vignettes, labeled “Nos machines,” “Nos écrémeuses,” and “Nos fusils” (our machines, our cream separators & our rifles), nod to the wider Automoto world of precision hardware and modern utility, turning the border into a cabinet of curiosities. The whole composition is framed in thick black ornament, with warm orange accents that make the portraits pop against the pale ground. The historical backdrop is as strong as the design. In 1923, Henri Pélissier (not pictured) won the Tour de France riding for Automoto, with teammate Ottavio Bottecchia taking second overall, making it a defining season for the brand’s racing identity. The portraits feature members of the 1923 Automoto–Hutchinson team: Honoré Barthélémy, Maurice Ville, Robert Jacquinot, Victor Lenaers, Hector Heusghem, Marcel Lacour, Roger Lacolle, Henri Moerenhout, and Albert Jordens. The middle panel is a handy chart of French postal rates, shipping information, and rules. Down below, the typography shifts into pure brand theater, “Cycles Automoto” in oversized letters, and “Pneus Hutchinson” locked beneath it like a seal of quality. Even the sales pitch is period-perfect. The lower panel reads: Si vous désirez une bicyclette irréprochable, une arme de précision, une machine à coudre, une écrémeuse, adressez vous à l’agent AUTOMOTO ou écrivez 152, avenue Malakoff à Paris et demandez le catalogue. If you want an impeccable bicycle, a precision firearm, a sewing machine, or a cream separator, contact the AUTOMOTO agent, or write to 152 Avenue Malakoff in Paris and request the catalog. Altogether, it is a tangible slice of early twentieth-century consumer cycling culture, when racing heroes, factory brands, and everyday products all lived on the same page. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper.

- [1892 Clément Cycles With Champions Cassignard and Charron, Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1892-clement-cycles-with-champions-cassignard-and-charron-advertising-poster/) - Clément Cycles Poster, Featuring Cycling Legends: Cassignard & Charron Beautiful late nineteenth-century advertising poster for Clément Cycles of Paris, celebrating two of the firm’s star riders, Georges Cassignard and Fernand Charron. The design places a Clément racing bicycle in perfect profile on a velodrome, with riders in blue jerseys racing on the track and a grandstand full of spectators in the distance. Above it, the large word “Clément” stretches across a stippled blue sky, while the famous Clément badge with a rooster perched on a wheel appears in the upper right corner. The artist uses the bicycle wheels as circular medallions for portraiture. In the front wheel, a finely shaded portrait of Geo. Cassignard is surrounded by the inscription “Geo. Cassignard, trois fois champion de France en 1892 sur machines Clément pneumatiques Dunlop.” The rear wheel frames F. Charron, with the legend “F. Charron, trois fois champion de France en 1891 sur machines Clément pneumatiques Dunlop.” The text proudly ties both men’s multiple French titles to Clément bicycles equipped with Dunlop pneumatic tyres. Cassignard was a leading French track specialist of the period, French champion in 1892 with several national titles that year, including the 50-kilometre tricycle championship. Charron was one of the outstanding all-round riders of the early 1890s and would soon become known as a pioneering racing driver, making him a genuine celebrity for the brand. The company itself, founded by industrialist Adolphe Clément in the 1870s, had become one of France’s dominant cycle manufacturers by the 1890s and held the French manufacturing rights for Dunlop pneumatic tyres. The poster reflects that success, presenting Clément as the choice of champions and visually linking modern lightweight safety bicycles, Dunlop tyres, and national track titles. Printed in rich blues, greens, and ochres with delicate stipple shading, this piece is a superb example of early French cycling lithography and a beautiful addition to any cycling collection. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [Gladiator Racing Bicycles Perpetual Calendar Poster, late 1890s](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/gladiator-racing-bicycles-perpetual-calendar-poster-late-1890s-2/) - Beautiful and historically rich original poster for the French bicycle manufacturer Gladiator, one of the major Paris cycle makers of the 1890s, with works in Le Pré-Saint-Gervais on the city's edge. The design combines an advertising element, a portrait gallery, and a perpetual calendar, making it a superb display piece for a shop or office of the period. Across the top, a large script “Gladiator” sweeps diagonally across the sheet, accompanied by the firm’s trademark: a gladiator figure standing on a globe. Around this title, ornate floral and scrollwork decoration frames a series of photographic vignettes celebrating the brand’s star riders. The central image shows a remarkable five-man tandem, a full racing quintet, with the riders identified as Roux, Lestrade, Helier, Spartaco, and Demester. Multi-seat machines like this were a popular way for manufacturers to demonstrate technical ability and speed in the 1890s. In the upper-right panel, Robert Protin appears, photographed on his racing bicycle. Protin was a leading Belgian sprinter, world amateur sprint champion in 1895 and professional sprint world champion in 1896, exactly the sort of prestige rider a top factory wanted in its colors. At lower left is a double portrait captioned “Michaël / Choppy” that shows Welsh distance star Jimmy Michael with his trainer James “Choppy” Warburton. Warburton, a former rider turned cycling coach, managed and trained several of the era’s best professionals and worked closely with Gladiator’s stable of riders. On the lower right, framed by elaborate ornament and flowers, a large roundel presents French stayer specialist Constant Huret in racing position on his track machine. Huret, known as “Le Boulanger,” was one of the dominant long distance and motor paced riders of the decade, a multiple winner of the 24 hour Bol d’Or race in Paris and motor paced world champion in 1900. At the bottom center sits a decorative “Calendrier perpétuel” or perpetual calendar. This practical feature, combined with the portraits of star professionals and the elegant monochrome artwork, would have made the piece ideal for display in a Gladiator dealer’s showroom or in a fashionable workshop. Overall, this poster captures the glamour and innovation of late nineteenth-century cycle sport, linking the Gladiator marque to some of the most successful riders of the day and presenting them in a refined, collector-worthy composition. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [2005 Giro d’Italia Stage 16, Original Sign-In Sheet](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2005-giro-ditalia-stage-16-original-sign-in-sheet/) - This is an original Giro d’Italia “firma di partenza,” the sign-in sheet from race morning, the piece that sits on the table while the riders come through and sign before the stage begins. It is printed in classic Giro pink, with “Firma di Partenza” at upper left, the 88° Giro d’Italia mark, and the RCS Sport and La Gazzetta dello Sport logos across the top. In the stage box at upper right, the details are filled in by hand, “16ª tappa, Lissone, Varazze, 25.05.2005,” tying it directly to Stage 16 of the 2005 Giro. The center of the sheet is pure Giro texture, a big team list down the left, and a grid of rider boxes running across the page, packed with quick signatures, initials, and scribbles done on the fly. Some squares are marked with bold Xs, indicating the riders who abandoned the race and would not be starting that day. The team column reads like a mid-2000s peloton time capsule: Lampre, Fassa Bortolo, Cofidis, Davitamon-Lotto, Liquigas-Bianchi, Rabobank, Phonak, Quick Step, Discovery Channel, T-Mobile, and more, all on one official piece of paper from one day of racing. Stage 16, Lissone to Varazze (210 km), was the classic kind of Giro stage where the break gets the day. A large move went clear and stayed away, and Christophe Le Mével took the win in Varazze, ahead of Christophe Brandt in second and Alessandro Vanotti in third. Mével’s victory was his first professional win, a big personal milestone captured in the race narrative of this Giro. This is not just a page of autographs; it is the official sign-in sheet from the morning of a breakaway with the full peloton laid out team by team, with part of the day’s story written into the ink and the X marks. This is not a reproduction; it is an original, one-of-a-kind Sign-in Sheet. This item is NOT linen-backed.

- [Miguel Indurain, Five Time Tour de France Winner](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/miguel-indurain-five-time-tour-de-france-winner/) - Campagnolo & Miguel Indurain Dominating 5 Tours in a Row This original Campagnolo promotional poster celebrates Miguel Indurain’s unprecedented five consecutive Tour de France victories from 1991 to 1995. The design features Indurain in the Maillot Jaune (Yellow Jersey) during one of his dominant performances, riding a Banesto team bike equipped with Campagnolo components. With the bold headline “Campagnolo & Miguel Indurain Dominating 5 Tours in a Row”, the poster commemorates one of the most remarkable streaks in Tour history, underscoring Campagnolo’s deep connection to elite-level performance. Miguel Indurain was a spectacular force on a bicycle, spending 60 days in the Yellow Jersey during his Tour de France career. From 1991 to 1995, he won five consecutive Tours de France, making him the fourth rider in history to win five Tours—and the only one to do so consecutively. He also claimed back-to-back victories at the Giro d’Italia in 1992 and 1993, becoming one of only seven riders to complete the Giro–Tour double in the same season. With Lance Armstrong’s seven titles stripped, Indurain now holds the record for the most consecutive Tour wins, and shares the all-time win record (five) with Jacques Anquetil, Bernard Hinault, and Eddy Merckx. Indurain’s extraordinary physiology and calm dominance earned him the nickname “Big Mig.” Standing 1.88 meters (6 ft 2 in) tall and weighing 80 kilograms (176 lb), he defied expectations in the high mountains and was unmatched in time trials. His talent was clear from a young age: at 18, he became the youngest rider to win the Spanish amateur national road championship; at 20, he led the Vuelta a España and won a stage of the Tour de l’Avenir, signaling the rise of one of cycling’s most iconic champions.

- [1975 World Championships, Official Race Poster - Race Winner - Hennie Kuiper](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1975-world-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-hennie-kuiper-2/) - Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme - 1975 UCI Road World Championships Rad-Weltmeisterschaften Original Belgian poster for the 1975 UCI Cycling World Championships, a clean, modernist design that reduces the entire idea of world championship racing to a few perfect signals, bold typography, a stylised rider, and the five rainbow stripes of the champion’s jersey. The poster is printed in French and carries the initials L.V.B. and U.C.I. at the top, with the title set in heavy black type, “Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme 1975.” At the center, a graphic front view of a rider and handlebars cuts through the rainbow bands, a sharp, almost architectural composition that feels unmistakably mid 1970s in its confidence and restraint. The text at the bottom lays out the week in Belgium with admirable precision. On the track side, it lists Liège and the “Stade vélodrome du F.C. Liégeois,” matching the 1975 Track World Championships held at Rocourt, in the Liège area. On the other side, it lists Mettet and Yvoir, the official locations of the 1975 Road World Championships, held August 27 - 31, 1975. The schedule printed on the sheet includes the 100 km team time trialand separate amateur and professional road races. For collectors, 1975 is also an instantly recognizable year on the results sheet. The men’s professional road race, held on 31 August 1975 in Yvoir, was won by Hennie Kuiper, with Roger De Vlaeminck second and Jean Pierre Danguillaume third. In the women’s road race, the world title went to Tineke Fopma of the Netherlands, with Geneviève Gambillon second and Keetie van Oosten Hage third, a podium that links three of the era’s key names in women’s championship racing. Production details are printed at the bottom, noting it was printed in Belgium by Morjos Printers in Ghent, a period credit that anchors the poster firmly as a locally produced championship piece. Visually, this is one of those posters that reads from across the room, minimal, iconic, and instantly legible as “worlds,” even before you step close enough to read the fine print. A great addition to any cycling collection This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [1972 World Championships, Official Race Poster - Race Winner - Marino Basso](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1972-world-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-marino-basso/) - Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme - 1972 UCI Road World Championships Rad-Weltmeisterschaften Original French poster for the 1972 UCI World Cycling Championships, a rare surviving poster from 1972 that ties together both the track events in Marseille and the road races in Gap. Across the top, the text names the governing bodies in French, Union Cycliste Internationale and Fédération Française de Cyclisme, flanked by the period UCI emblem on the left and the FFC rooster shield on the right. The artwork shows two riders racing hard on a steeply banked velodrome, drawn in sepia and black, with a procession of stylised national flags rising above them, including the Union Jack of Great Britain, which reinforces the international character of the championships. In large red letters, the poster announces “Championnats du Monde”, with the program spelled out below. On the left, the track section reads “Piste, 29 Juillet au 2 Aout 1972, Marseille, Stade Vélodrome,” which had a reduced schedule of events because of the Munich Olympic Games. On the right, the road section reads “Route, 5 et 6 Aout 1972, Gap, Hautes Alpes,” referring to the 1972 UCI Road World Championships in Gap, where two road races were held, the men’s professional race and the women’s race. Historically, the Gap road races produced memorable winners. The men’s professional world title went to Italian sprinter Marino Basso, who outsprinted compatriot Franco Bitossi and French rider Cyrille Guimard. In the women’s race, French rider Geneviève Gambillon took gold ahead of Soviet riders Lubov Zadoroznaya and Anna Konkina. These results, combined with the unusual split between Marseille on the track and Gap on the road, make the 1972 edition a distinctive year in World Championships history. Surviving posters from the 1972 Worlds are extremely rare and difficult to find. Although in poor condition, it is a particularly desirable piece for collectors of World Championship memorabilia.

Printed for Saturday, March 17th, 1962, it advertises the Grote Prijs Leo De Ren, loudly billed as “De match van het jaar!”, the match of the year. The layout is bold and graphic in green and red. Across the top, SPORTPALEIS stretches the full width of the sheet with Antwerpen printed beneath. A red date block at upper right reads “Zaterdag 17 Maart 1962”, immediately fixing the place and time. Just below, a bright red headline shouts “DE MATCH VAN HET JAAR!”, leading your eye to the central image band. In the middle of the poster, a green-tinted photograph shows riders racing on the steep boards of the indoor track. On either side are portrait photos of the evening’s star attractions, Dutch ace Peter Post on the left and Belgian legend Rik Van Steenbergen on the right. Their names dominate the design in enormous red capitals, PETER POST and VAN STEENBERGEN, making this very clearly a head-to-head showdown. The program is described as an “Omnium in 5 reeksen”, an omnium contested over five events: points race, time trial, pursuit, behind derny pacing, and behind stayer motorbikes. Additional text promotes an international derny race featuring the best riders from the Antwerp Six Days, plus extra races for amateurs and fans, with ticket prices and the contact details of sponsor Leo De Ren, a local real estate specialist, along the lower edge. Both featured riders were giants of their era. Peter Post, from Amsterdam, became one of history’s most successful Six-day specialists with 65 Six-day victories from 155 starts, and was also the first Dutch winner of Paris-Roubaix in 1964, as well as the Dutch national road champion in 1963. Rik Van Steenbergen, from Arendonk, was already a superstar by 1962, a three-time world road race champion in 1949, 1956, and 1957, and a winner of many of the sport’s Monument classics, including Paris-Roubaix, the Tour of Flanders, Milan-San Remo, Paris-Brussels, and La Fleche Wallonne, along with dozens of victories on the track. With its powerful typography, portraits of two all-time greats, and detailed race program, this is a superb piece of mid-century Belgian cycling history.

- [2006 Six Days of Maastricht, Official Race Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2006-six-days-of-maastricht-official-race-poster/) - Euro 6-daagse Maastricht Striking original event poster for the Euro 6-daagse Maastricht, the Six-day track race held in Maastricht from September 28th to October 3rd 2006. Across the top, bold white lettering on dark blue announces “6-daagse terug in Maastricht!”, telling fans the Six-day was back in the city. In the central design, the event logo is built around a large yellow star set inside a stylised number 6, formed by a sweeping blue arc studded with small yellow stars. Behind this logo is a dynamic line drawing of riders performing a Madison style hand sling. The title “Euro 6-daagse Maastricht” appears in strong yellow and blue lettering beneath the logo. The lower half of the poster features a vivid photograph of an arena. Riders are shown racing behind pacing derny motorcycles in front of packed grandstands, capturing the atmosphere of indoor Six-day racing, bright lights, polished boards, and spectators pressed close to the action. A blue band beneath the image reads “Kaarten: www.eurozesdaagse.nl”, directing spectators to the ticket site, with a row of sponsor logos along the bottom, including Holland Casino, Amstel Bier, Tissot, Brussels Pool, Doeland, MECC Maastricht, Dagblad De Limburger, and others. The Euro 6-daagse Maastricht formed part of the European Six-day circuit. Two rider teams race over six consecutive evenings in Madison, competing in points races, time trials, and motor-paced events, with the overall result decided by laps gained and points scored. The 2006 edition advertised here was won by the Swiss specialists Bruno Risi and Franco Marvulli. Risi, born 6 September 1968 in Altdorf, Switzerland, was one of the outstanding Six-day riders of his generation, a five-time Olympian and multiple world points race champion who amassed a long list of victories on the boards. His partner Marvulli, born 11 November 1978 in Zürich, is a former Swiss track star who won silver in the Madison with Risi at the 2004 Olympic Games, and is a four-time world champion, twice in the scratch race and twice in the Madison, as well as a prolific Six-day winner.

- [2006 Six Days of Bremen, Official Race Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2006-six-days-of-bremen-official-race-poster/) - 42. Bremer Tage Rennen, Bremen Six Day 2006 Poster Featuring: Erik Zabel & Rolf Aldag Bold and colorful original poster for the 42. Bremer Tage Rennen, the 42nd Bremen Six Day track race, held in the AWD Dome, Bremen, from 12 to 17 January 2006. The bright blue background is dominated at the top by the mastheads of Weser Kurier and Radio Bremen, together with the brewery Haake Beck, presented as the event's main partners. At the center of the design sits a dynamic photo of riders sprinting on the boards, captured with deliberate motion blur so that bars, helmets, and wheels streak across the image, perfectly conveying the speed and intensity of Six-day racing. Over this image, a red banner announces the big news for that year: “Weltelite am Start Zabel Aldag zum ersten Mal in Bremen” which proudly tells fans that world-class German road stars Erik Zabel and Rolf Aldag would ride the Bremen Six Day for the very first time. Their participation was a major attraction of the 2006 edition, and this poster ensures it is front and center. In the lower part of the poster, the multi colored 6 logo of the Bremen Six Day appears next to the event title “42. Bremer Tage Rennen” and the dates 12. bis 17. Januar 2006, with AWD dome Bremen printed beneath. A red information box promises “Freie Fahrt für Bahnradfans” in cooperation with the local public transport system, while a row of sponsor logos along the bottom edge highlights the broad commercial support behind the event. The Bremen Six Day is one of the classic winter fixtures on the European Six-day circuit. Two rider teams race Madisons, points races, and time trials over six consecutive evenings, with the final classification decided on laps and points. At the 2006 edition promoted here, the overall victory went to Dutch specialists Robert Slippens and Danny Stam, after a tight battle that also featured Zabel and his partner Marco Villa. With its saturated colors, strong typography, and clear reference to the first appearance of Zabel and Aldag in Bremen, this poster is an excellent piece for collectors of Six-day memorabilia. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper.

Bold red lettering across the lower half announces “Topsport Show & Muziek,” capturing the mix of elite competition, show elements, and live music that defines modern six-day racing. Along the bottom margin, sponsor logos highlight the commercial strength of the event, including Rabobank, Shimano, Koga Miyata, De Telegraaf, and others, together with the event and venue marks for Ahoy Rotterdam and the International Six Day Organisation. Ticket information is printed in Dutch along the green strip at the foot, directing fans to Kassa Ahoy, the official website, and a telephone booking line. The Rotterdam Six Day is one of the most important fixtures on the European winter track calendar. Run as a six-evening event for two-rider teams, it combines Madison races, points races, time trials, and other track disciplines, with the overall classification decided on laps and points. The 2007 edition advertised on this poster was won by the team of Robert Bartko of Germany and Iljo Keisse of Belgium, ahead of Danny Stam with Marco Villa and Bruno Risi with Franco Marvulli, confirming Rotterdam’s status as a race for the very best six-day specialists.

Merckx is captured alone, head down and on the drops, driving his Faema-era machine in a full-gas solo effort on a time trial stage. Close behind him runs a Peugeot support car with a large “MERCKX” name plate across the front, surrounded by race officials and photographers on motorbikes and in follow cars. Across the lower part of the image, this example is hand-signed by Eddy Merckx in dark ink. The caption in the margin identifies the scene as the 1970 Tour de France, the 57th edition of the race. That year’s Tour ran from 27 June to 19 July, covered about 4,254 kilometres over 23 stages and a prologue, and was won overall by Merckx. Riding for the Faema squad, he finished more than three minutes ahead of Joop Zoetemelk in the general classification and also took the mountains classification and the combination classification, underlining the all-round dominance that earned him the nickname “The Cannibal.” Over his career, Merckx amassed an unprecedented 525 victories across road and track, including five Tours de France, five Giro d’Italia, and one Vuelta a España, which is why he is still widely regarded as the greatest cyclist of all time.

- [1952 Cycles Alcyon Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1952-cycles-alcyon/) - Alcyon Cycling Team has the Winning Cards This original Alcyon advertising poster is built around a perfect visual idea, cycling champions as a winning hand of cards. At the top, a large painted hand fans out oversized playing cards, each card featuring a stylised portrait of a racer in a brightly colored jersey. The faces are drawn like mid-century magazine illustrations, with clean lines, confident expressions, and each rider framed as a “card” you would want to be holding. Below the artwork, the poster becomes wonderfully direct and typographic, touting recent wins by riders on the Alycon Team. The headline reads “Tour d’Algérie 1952 (2.500 kilomètres)” and highlights the overall winner: “Classement général, 1er Vincent Vitetta.” A second block announces “Grand Prix de Nice 1952” and names the winner, “1er Dominique Forlini,” The bottom third is all brand power. “Sur bicyclette ALCYON” leads into a huge ALCYON logotype that dominates the sheet, followed by the line “Ces victoires sont le résultat d’une fabrication consciencieuse avant tout,” which translates to “These victories are the result of careful workmanship above all.” In the corner, it even says “Affiche d’intérieur,” a reminder that it was meant to be displayed on a shop wall, right where customers could take in the winners and the brand name in one glance. The Alcyon cycling team (1905 -1962) was one of the great early “trade teams,” built around the Alcyon bicycle brand and stacked with top talent in the sport’s formative decades. The Team won Paris-Roubaix an epic 12 times. They won the Tour de France four straight years before World War I, taking overall victory with François Faber (1909), Octave Lapize (1910), Gustave Garrigou (1911), and Odile Defraye (1912), and they also captured the Tour’s team prize from 1909 to 1912, later repeating that team prize run from 1927 to 1929. In the late 1920s, Alcyon’s dominance was so pronounced that multiple Tour winners came directly from the squad, including Nicolas Frantz and Maurice De Waele, emblematic of an era when powerful commercial teams could shape the entire race.

- [1922 Cycles Alcyon Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1922-cycles-alcyon-advertising-poster/) - This refined 1922 Alcyon poster is a beautiful piece of historical advertising for Alcyon, one of the powerhouse cycling squads of the early twentieth century. Printed in elegant black and pale blue on a light ground, it is laid out as an ornate commemorative plaque. At the very top sits the Alcyon head-badge: a stylised seabird in flight above water and reeds, set inside an Art Nouveau cartouche and wrapped by a banner reading “ALCYON.” The name and emblem refer to the mythical alcyon bird believed to bring good omens and calm seas, making it a fitting symbol for a brand that wanted its machines linked with reliability and smooth, effortless speed. Below, an oval action photograph shows an Alcyon rider in full flight, surrounded by a ring of portrait medallions that present the team’s stars. Flowing script announces that these champions will ride “les bicyclettes et motocyclettes Alcyon” in “les grandes épreuves de 1922,” a promise that Alcyon machines will be seen at all of the major races that season. The whole design is enclosed within a laurel-leaf border, reinforcing the theme of victory and prestige. The riders highlighted here are some of the most important Alcyon professionals of the era. Belgian road specialist René Vermandel would go on to win Liège–Bastogne–Liège in 1923 and 1924 and the 1922 Tour of Belgium, results that cemented his reputation as a classics and stage-race rider. Fellow Belgian Louis Mottiat, nicknamed “L’homme de fer”(The Iron Man) for his toughness, was a double winner of Liège–Bastogne–Liège in 1921 and 1922 and one of the most reliable workhorses in the peloton. Frenchman Émile Masson and Belgian Félix Sellier were likewise central figures for Alcyon: Masson took Bordeaux–Paris in 1923 and the Tour of Belgium in 1919 and 1923, while Sellier later claimed Paris–Brussels three years in a row from 1922 to 1924 and Paris–Roubaix in 1925. Charles Juseret was a Belgian road specialist who rode as a professional from 1916 to 1928 and won the long-distance Bordeaux–Marseille race and a stage of the 1923 Tour of Belgium. The lower center vignette shows French track specialist Henri Meunier, identified on the poster as champion de France de vitesse over 350 metres, signalling Alcyon’s strength on the track as well as the road. Flanking Meunier are two portraits captioned “Jolly (jeune)” and “Jolly (aîné),” father and son. Georges Jolly won the 500 cc Grand Prix de Lyon in 1922 riding an Alcyon machine. Behind these faces stands Alcyon's formidable reputation. Owned by Edmond Gentil and based near Paris, Alcyon was one of the dominant French bicycle and motorcycle manufacturers of the era, with its professional team winning multiple editions of the Tour de France and many of the great one day classics. This poster captures that golden period in a single sheet, blending early racing photography, graceful typography, and the famous bird crest into a beautiful piece of advertising art. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

- [1921 Tour de France L’Auto Diploma for Eugène Dhers, Signed by Race Founders Henri Desgrange & Victor Goddet](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1921-tour-de-france-lauto-diploma-for-eugene-dhers-signed-by-henri-desgrange/) - A remarkable original diploma issued by the newspaper L’Auto to French rider Eugène Dhers for his performance in the 1921 Tour de France, signed by both Henri Degrange and Victor Goddet, pivotal figures in the creation of the Tour de France. This large, finely printed sheet combines classical illustration with early twentieth-century sporting imagery and is an important historical, display-worthy Tour document from the period. An elaborate architectural frame dominates the layout. At the top, under a curved arch filled with clouds and early aircraft, the masthead reads “L’Auto, Journal Quotidien de Sports” with the word “Diplôme” on a banner beneath. The left and right margins are filled with round vignettes showing different sports, each encircled by laurel leaves. These include motor racing, rugby, swimming, fencing and gymnastics, cycling, boxing and wrestling, skiing and hockey, running, all rendered in detailed black-and-white line work. Along the bottom right sits a reclining classical figure, bearded and semi-draped, who extends a laurel wreath into the central text panel. The wreath visually links to the inscription that names the recipient and the race. The handwritten text in the center reads “Offert à Monsieur Dhers Eugène Tour de France 1921,” followed by his results in three lines: 1er des Français (2ème classe), first among the French riders in the second class category 4e Class Général (2ème classe), fourth in the second class general classification 12e Class Général (toutes catégories), twelfth in the overall general classification across all categories At the bottom, the diploma is signed by Le Directeur of the Tour, Henri Desgrange, and l’Administrateur of the race Victor Goddet, and dated “Paris le 1 Août 1921” (Paris, August 1, 1921). Henri Desgrange (1865 -1940) was a French track cyclist, sports journalist, and newspaper editor best known as the driving force behind the Tour de France. A former record-breaking rider who held twelve world track records, including the hour record of 35.325 kilometers set in 1893, he later became editor of the sports daily L’Auto. In 1903, Desgrange, working with his cycling reporter Géo Lefèvre, launched the Tour de France as a long-distance stage race to promote L’Auto, and he served as its director from the first edition through 1935, shaping the format, rules, and aura of extreme difficulty that defined the race. Under his leadership, the Tour grew into France’s premier sporting event and dramatically increased L’Auto’s circulation, securing Desgrange’s legacy as the “father” or cofounder of the Tour de France and one of the most influential figures in cycling history. Victor Goddet (1868 - 1926) was a French sports journalist and business manager whose financial acumen was crucial to the birth of the Tour de France. In 1900, he joined Henri Desgrange to found the new sports daily L’Auto Vélo, later L’Auto, serving as its accountant and finance director as the paper sought to challenge its rival paper, Le Vélo. Eugène Dhers was a French road racer who became a regular in the Tour de France, riding in the Race 11 times, finishing the 1921 race as a second-class rider in an excellent twelfth place overall. The 1921 Tour de France was the fifteenth edition of the race, run from 26 June to 24 July 1921, starting and finishing in Paris, over 5,484 kilometers. The overall winner was Belgian rider Léon Scieur, while Dhers emerged as the best-placed Frenchman in the second class, a distinction celebrated with this diploma.

Beyl Advertising Poster, 1925 Paris Six Day Winner](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/alfred-beyl-cycles-a-beyl-advertising-poster-1925-paris-six-day-winner/) - Alfred Beyl “Cycles A. Beyl” 1920s Advertising Poster Powerful French advertising poster promoting Cycles A. Beyl and the racing achievements of track star Alfred Beyl, winner of the Six Days of Paris in 1925. The composition is strikingly direct. Beyl is shown from the front, charging straight toward the viewer on a track bicycle, his hands low on the bars, shoulders square, and eyes fixed ahead. The meticulous black line drawing emphasises his muscular arms and legs, as well as the clean geometry of his racing machine. Around him runs a fine ornamental border, and at the top, an elegant cartouche carries the script logo “Cycles A. Beyl”, anchoring the poster as a product advertisement. The French text, printed in vivid red around the rider, reads almost like a personal manifesto. It explains that Alfred Beyl, who named his bicycle after himself, set himself the ambition of creating the most beautiful machine. He assures the reader that all his models for men and for women have been specially studied and refined, and that they offer every perfection one has the right to expect from the finest manufacture. In the lower block of text, the poster reminds buyers that Beyl has been a winner for twenty years on the velodromes of Europe and America, notably in Paris, where he collected numerous victories in individual races and in American-style Madison events. The key line proudly records him as “Vainqueur des Six Jours de Paris 1925,” a result he achieved with Dutch partner Piet van Kempen. The copy is backed by Beyl’s real palmarès. Alfred Beyl, known as “Le Dragon,” was one of France’s leading track riders before the First World War, French national pursuit champion in 1910 and national sprint champion in 1911, and later a successful six-day rider. After his racing career, he opened a bicycle shop in Nevers in 1929 and ran it for decades. With its intense head-on portrait, ornate branding, and promotional text drawn directly from a champion’s career, this poster is a superb example of 1920s French cycle advertising and an outstanding piece for any cycling collection.

The design reduces the rider to a few sweeping brushstrokes, a modern, almost abstract silhouette set against a blue field, with three flashes of black, yellow, and red around the torso to echo the Belgian flag. Across the bottom, the text appears in Dutch, French, and German, reflecting the trilingual character of the national championship, while a column of sponsor logos anchors the right side of the layout. The race itself was a classic Ardennes-style battle on the hilly roads around Ronse. After 246 kilometers, Stijn Devolder of the Discovery Channel team attacked late and rode solo to the finish, claiming his first Belgian national road title ahead of Tom Boonen and Philippe Gilbert. This was Devolder’s first Belgian road race title; he would later win the National Road Championship again in 2010 and 2013. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

- [1969 World Championships, Official Race Poster - Race Winner - Harm Ottenbros](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1969world-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-harm-ottenbros/) - 1969 UCI World Championships, Antwerp and Zolder, Belgium “Wereldkampioenschappen der Beroepsrenners” Bold blocks of color and clean modern graphics make this original 1969 World Championships poster a standout piece of Belgian design. At the top, the UCI and K.B.W.B. (Royal Belgian Cycling League) titles frame a huge white letter B that dominates the composition, a clear nod to both Belgium and the beroepsrenners, the professional riders featured in these championships. Arcing across the upper half is the full rainbow of world champion stripes in blue, red, black, yellow, and green, instantly linking the image to the UCI World Championships. In front of a stylised globe highlighted in yellow, a smiling racing cyclist powers straight toward the viewer, rendered in crisp black lines against a soft blue sky and a deep black ground. Below, the text “Wereldkampioenschappen der beroepsrenners 1969, baan: Antwerpen, weg: Zolder” anchors the design and fixes the venues in time and place. The poster promotes the 1969 professional World Championships, with the track events for pros held in Antwerp from 5 to 9 August and the road race contested on the motor racing circuit at Zolder on 10 August. The men’s professional road race at Zolder produced one of the great surprise results in World Championship history, when Dutch rider Harm Ottenbros outsprinted Belgian home favourite Julien Stevens, with Italian Michele Dancelli taking the bronze medal. For collectors, this poster captures that moment when Belgium stood at the centre of the cycling world, hosting both the track and road championships in the same week. The artwork is signed by Belgian painter and poster artist Herman Verbaere, born in Wetteren in 1905 and active as a landscape painter, illustrator, engraver, and prolific affichiste. Verbaere designed many travel and advertising posters, particularly for the Belgian national railway SNCB from the 1930s through the 1960s, and later worked on Belgian postage stamp issues in the 1960s. His bold, simplified figure of the rider and the strong graphic balance between the giant B, the rainbow stripes, and the map of Europe give this piece a distinctly mid-century feel that still looks sharp and contemporary on the wall. This is an original 1969 printing, produced in Belgium for the UCI World Championships hosted in Antwerp and Zolder, and an excellent choice for anyone who collects World Championship memorabilia. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters, allowing them to be displayed or framed without compromising their value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction.

- [Jan Janssen, Signed 1969 Bic Team Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/jan-janssen-signed-1969-bic-team-jersey/) - A gorgeous jersey from the iconic Bic Cycling Team, signed by Jan Janssen Johannes Adrianus “Jan” Janssen (born 19 May 1940) is a Dutch former professional cyclist. He was the World Champion and a winner of both the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España, the first Dutch rider to win either event. He rode the Tour de France eight times and finished all but his first attempt. He won seven Tour stages and wore the yellow jersey for two days, after stage 16 in 1966 and after stage 22B in 1968. In the peloton, he was easily recognized for his blond hair and glasses. Following the death of Federico Bahamontes in August 2023, he became the oldest living Tour de France winner, although not the earliest by year of victory; that distinction belongs to Lucien Aimar, who won in 1966. Includes an original press photo of Janssen from the 1969 season. Size: N/A Chest: 33 inches / 84 cm (16 ½ inches / 42 cm measured armpit to armpit) Length: 27 ½ in / 70 cm Maker: N/A This jersey is a lightweight "silky" material with no back pockets.

- [1992 World Championships, Official Race Poster - Race Winner, Gianni Bugno](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1992-worlds-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-gianni-bugno/) - Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme Campeonatos del Mundo de Ciclismo 1992 1992 World Cycling Championships Original official poster for the 1992 UCI Cycling World Championships hosted by the Comunidad Valenciana in Spain, with the road events in Benidorm and the track events in nearby Valencia. The design has a bold early-1990s look. The upper section is black, overlaid with thin blue and yellow horizontal stripes. In this field, the title appears in two languages: Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme 1992 / Campeonatos del Mundo de Ciclismo 1992. A prominent stylised yellow figure of a cyclist sweeps through the center above two blue ovals showing simplified world maps, underscoring the global nature of the championships. The UCI emblem sits at upper left, and the dates 30/8/92 – 6/9/92 run along the lower edge of the black band. The white lower panel bears the text “Comunidad Valenciana – Valencia · Benidorm – España,” along with the crests of the Real Federación Española de Ciclismo (RFEC) and the regional organizing committee. At the bottom right is a small course map showing the Benidorm road circuit from Finestrat to Benidorm. At the same time, the familiar five UCI rainbow stripes appear centered along the lower edge. The championships themselves were unusual because 1992 was an Olympic year. The road worlds in Benidorm consisted of only two events: the professional men’s road race and the women’s 50 km team time trial. On 6 September 1992, Italian star Gianni Bugno won the men’s 261 km road race ahead of Laurent Jalabert of France and Dimitri Konyshev of Russia. The day before, the United States team of Bunki Bankaitis-Davis, Jan Bolland, Jeanne Golay, and Eve Stephenson took gold in the women’s team time trial, with France second and the Unified Team / Russia third. With its bilingual typography, world-map imagery, and direct link to Bugno’s second world title and the American women’s TTT victory, this poster is a strong piece of early-1990s championship design and an excellent addition to any cycling collection.

- [Le "Petit Prodige" Jimmy Michael and Marius Thé, Roi des Entraînerus](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/marius-the-roi-des-entrainerus-and-le-petit-prodige-jimmy-michael/) - A fantastic postal card featuring Le"Petit Prodige" Jimmy Michaël and Marius Thé, Roi des Entraînerus Jimmy Michael was a Welsh World Cycling Champion known as the "Petite Prodigy" due to his early success and small stature. Michael started racing at the age of 12 and went on to be a five-time Welsh Champion at the five and fifty mile distances, winner of the 1894 Surrey Hundred in World Record Time, and 1895 World Motor-paced Champion. His numerous, enthusiastic fans wrote a song in his honor - “The pride of the cycle is young Jimmy Michael With muscles hard as iron, and a heart as true as steel, His banner he’s unfurled, as champion of the world, Here’s good health and wealth to the knight of the wheel." "A superstar of his day, thousands flocked to see him race on tracks in America, France, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, England, and Wales. For most of his career, he was the man to beat, enjoying great rivalries with other high-caliber riders like Frank Starbuck, Bobby Walthour, Lucien Lesna, Eddie McDuffie, J. W. Stocks, Charley Barden, Constant Huret, Arthur and Tom Linton. He was a multiple record holder at distances from 1 to 100 miles and for the hour and the first official British professional world champion. Jimmy Michael deserves to be remembered as one of the greatest track cyclists of his era and of all time." (Aaron Cripps, 2014) His story is fascinating - read more about him below. Marius Thé the "King of Coaches" was born in Marseille in September 1871. He became a motorcyclist, finishing third in the Grand Prix de la République at the Parc des Princes in 1903, as well as the Critérium du Quart-de-Litre a week later at the same place, all on Clément. His great success came in March 1904, still on Clément, by winning the Grand Prix de la République (officer World Motorcycling Championship), He went on to organize both at the Parc des Princes and at the Vélodrome d'Hiver (ahead of Alessandro Anzani on Alcyon, and Joseph Collomb on Magali). ** All of the postal cards on our site are original, with no reproductions.

Check out the driver, steering wheel, spare tire & Bic logo on the hood, and bike-filled rack, all ready to roll to support rider mechanicals at the Tour. This car would be a fantastic addition to any desktop peloton. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal, but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza's attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

- [1977 Match of the Green Jerseys - Maertens vs. Van Linden](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1977-match-of-the-green-jerseys-maertens-vs-van-linden/) - De match der groene truien uit de Ronde van Frankrijk The Match of the Green Jerseys - Freddy Maertens vs. Rik Van Linden Original Belgian event poster for a major track meeting at the Sportpaleis Antwerpen on Saturday 8 January 1977. The top of the sheet shouts SPORTPALEIS in bold black letters on white, with a bright red date panel reading “Zaterdag 8 Januari 1977” and noting the start times: 20.00 for the main program and 18.00 for the preliminary races. A red headline across the width announces “De match der groene truien uit de Ronde van Frankrijk,” the match of the green jerseys from the Tour de France, setting up a star sprint duel between Freddy Maertens and Rik Van Linden. The central billing reads “Fr. Maertens, wereldkampioen, tegen Rik Van Linden, de pijlsnelle Antwerpse vedette,” world champion Freddy Maertens against the lightning fast Antwerp star Rik Van Linden. Black-and-white photos dominate the center of the design. On the left, Maertens wins a road sprint with arms raised in front of dense crowds. On the right, Van Linden is captured driving for the line with the peloton stretched out behind him. A vertical yellow bar between the photos, together with the black-and-yellow-red band above the lower text, echoes the Belgian flag and unifies the layout. The lower part of the poster announces the official Belgian amateur championship behind Dernys, “Officieel Kampioenschap van Belgie achter Dernymotoren, Liefhebbers,” along with additional races, including a junior pairs event. Admission prices and advance ticket details run along the bottom edge, and a Belgian fiscal stamp appears in the lower-right corner, validating the poster for public posting. Belgian sprinter Freddy Maertens had just become professional world road race champion in 1976 and had also won the Tour de France points classification that year. Fellow Belgian Rik Van Linden won the Tour de France green jersey in 1975 and was one of the fastest finishers of his generation. Together, they gave Antwerp fans a rare indoor showdown between two recent Tour de France points winners, staged on one of Belgium’s most famous velodromes.

Jaar – Grote Prijs “Heineken”, held at the Gents Sportpaleis velodrome in Ghent on Tuesday, 1 November 1977 at 14:00. The layout is classic Belgian track-racing ephemera. A bold red header shouts “GENTS SPORTPALEIS”, while the left margin carries a vertical band in black, yellow, and red, echoing the Belgian flag. In front of it, a stylised black-and-white racer hurls himself out of the frame, head down over the bars and front wheel dramatically foreshortened, capturing the speed and aggression of indoor sprinting. The rest of the sheet is strong black typography on white. The central block announces the Omnium of the Year and the Grote Prijs “Heineken”, starring a headline duel between Freddy Maertens and Dietrich Thurau. Supporting text lists the disciplines on the programme, including sprint, pursuit, 1 km time trial, and a lap race, plus the official Belgian women’s sprint championship, the Belgian amateur team race championship (ploegkoers liefhebbers), and afternoon races for juniors and amateurs, along with ticket prices and booking details. The venue, Gents Sportpaleis in Citadelpark, is the historic indoor velodrome, better known today as ’t Kuipke, with a tight 166.66-meter wooden track, famous for the Six Days of Ghent. The star names give this poster extra punch: Belgian ace Freddy Maertens was one of the dominant sprinters of the era and a two-time UCI world road champion (1976 and 1981), while German crowd favorite Dietrich “Didi” Thurau had exploded onto the scene in 1977 by winning four stages of the Tour de France, wearing yellow for 15 days, and taking the white jersey as best young rider, alongside multiple national pursuit titles and six-day victories. With its bold graphic rider, national colors, and marquee Maertens–Thurau showdown, this is a lovely piece of late-1970s Belgian track-cycling history and a great addition to any collection.

Designed with vivid late 1970s graphic flair. The poster features a dynamic design filled with overlapping diagonal hatch marks in orange, magenta, and violet that resolve into a loose, abstract group of racing cyclists, giving a strong sense of speed and movement with bold typography, and sponsorship by Wynn’s, a U.S.-based automotive additive company that supported multiple European cycling events in this era. The 1978 edition was won by Freddy Maertens & Danny Clark, seasoned six-day specialists with extensive international success.

- [Georges Speicher -Tour de France & World Champion - 1935  Super Champion Derailleurs Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/georges-speicher-tour-de-france-world-champion-1935-super-champion-derailleurs-advertising-poster/) - Georges Speicher - Super Champion Derailleurs A big, bold, impossibly French piece of 1930s cycling salesmanship, this Super Champion poster is built to stop you in your tracks. Front and center is a heroic portrait of Georges Speicher, the face of the pitch, presented here as living proof that the hardware works. The top line shouts “SUPER CHAMPION,” then doubles down with “Le champion des dérailleurs,” which translates to “The Champion of Derailleurs.” The copy calls him “Champion de France sur route professionnel 1935” (French professional road champion, 1935), a claim that matches his palmarès. It then ties the whole package together with “Sur bicyclette Alcyon, pneus Dunlop, avec le nouveau dérailleur Super Champion,” meaning “On an Alcyon bicycle, Dunlop tires, with the new Super Champion derailleur.” Lower down, the poster leans into pure hype with “Le grand triomphateur de la saison 1935,” or “the great triumphant one of the 1935 season,” followed by a long list of Speichers’s victories. The final punch line is classic shop window language: “Prouve et confirme sa supériorité sur tous les systèmes actuels,” or “proves and confirms its superiority over all current systems,” capped with “En vente ici,” meaning “for sale here.” Georges Speicher (1907–1978) was a prominent French professional cyclist in the 1930s, renowned for his versatility and charisma. In 1933, he made history by becoming the first rider to win both the Tour de France and the World Road Race Championship in the same year—a feat that earned him the nickname “Le roi de Montlhéry” after his victory at the Linas-Montlhéry autodrome. His Tour de France triumph was marked by three stage wins and a consistent performance in the mountains, where he often regained lost time through his exceptional descending skills. Beyond his 1933 successes, Speicher won Paris–Roubaix in 1936 and won the French National Road Race Championship three times (1935, 1937, and 1939). He also achieved nine individual stage victories in the Tour de France across various editions. Speicher’s career left an indelible mark on French cycling history.

The design features a monochrome mountain-stage photograph that fades into a pink surround, echoing the maglia rosa's color. Fausto Coppi, in a Bianchi jersey, drives a long line of climbers up an alpine road, with dark conifer forests and rocky slopes filling the background. Below the image, the slogan “Vetrine in Rosa” appears in blue script above the bold CONFCOMMERCIO wordmark, and at the bottom sit the logo for the 83° Giro d’Italia and the masthead of La Gazzetta dello Sport, linking the piece directly to the 2000 edition of the race. The 2000 Giro d’Italia was the 83rd edition of the event, held from 13 May to 4 June 2000, with 21 stages plus a prologue, covering a total distance of 3,676 km.

The design is built around the legendary sepia photograph of Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali climbing side by side on a mountain road, sharing a bidon between them on the Col du Galibier during the 1952 Tour de France. The image is softly vignetted, fading into a pink field that echoes the maglia rosa, the Giro leader’s jersey. Below, blue lettering spells out “Vetrine in Rosa” and “CONFCOMMERCIO”, with the official 82º Giro d’Italia logo and La Gazzetta dello Sport masthead at the bottom. A municipal rubber stamp in the lower-right corner, dated 4 June 1999, directly links the piece to the 1999 race. The 1999 Giro d’Italia, the 82nd edition of the corsa rosa, ran from 15 May to 6 June 1999 over 22 stages and 3,757 km.

Up top, it comes right out and says what it is, “Records du monde de l’heure, établis sur Bicyclette Clément,” and even drops the Paris HQ address, 38, Avenue de la Grande Armée, like a calling card. From there, it reads like a trophy wall, three crisp rider portraits, a neat list of record distances and dates, then the showstopper photo at the bottom, a rider tucked in tight behind a pacing motorbike, the classic motor-paced look where speed feels almost unreal. The riders featured are Tom Linton, Édouard Taylor, Paul Dangla, and Paul Guignard, all names tied to the paced hour record story from this era. Linton is documented as setting multiple paced-hour records in 1896, including 48.455 km and 49.893 km, which match the early entries printed on the sheet. Dangla is documented as a motor-paced star and hour record setter in 1903. The big finale is Guignard, credited here with 89.904 km for the hour, paced by Bertin, the same pairing and distance listed in hour record summaries. As for the brand, Clément was a major French bicycle maker founded by Adolphe Clément, and the company was famous for loud, confident marketing, exactly the vibe this poster delivers. It is part record chart, part photo display, and part pure early cycling swagger, the kind of piece that instantly makes a wall feel like a velodrome clubhouse.

- [1925 Paris-Roubaix, Alcyon Cycling Team Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1925-paris-roubaix-alcyon-cycling-team-advertising-poster/) - Paris-Roubaix 1er: Sellier Sur Bicyclette Alcyon A clean, graphic punch of deep blue and cream, this Alcyon poster is all confidence and no clutter. The headline locks onto the race name, “PARIS-ROUBAIX,” then delivers the brag in one line: “1er, Sellier, sur bicyclette Alcyon,” - Felix Sellier won on an Alcyon Bike The 1925 race was the 26th edition, held on April 12. Felix Sellier won the day in 9h 16’ 32” ahead of Pietro Bestetti in second and Jules Van Hevel in third. Paris-Roubaix is one of cycling’s oldest one-day races, first run in 1896, and has earned its reputation as the sport’s most punishing classic over more than a century. The race became inseparable from the brutal roads of northern France, especially its long stretches of pavé, the cobblestones that turn speed into survival and make mechanical failures part of the story. Its most famous nickname, the Hell of the North, did not begin as a romantic reference to cobbles; it was first used in 1919, when organizers and journalists traveled through a war-scarred landscape to see whether the route still existed after World War I. Over time, the start moved away from central Paris, it shifted to Chantilly in the 1960s, and since 1977, it has started in Compiègne, while the finish has, for the most part, since 1943, played out inside the Roubaix Velodrome, where the chaos of the roads suddenly becomes a clean track sprint. Modern Paris-Roubaix history also has its iconic set pieces, including the Trouée d’Arenberg, a fearsome cobbled sector through a forest first added in 1968 as race planners searched for tougher pavé after many roads were resurfaced. And in a final touch that feels perfectly on brand, since 1977, the winner has received a cobblestone trophy, a literal piece of the race. The Alcyon cycling team (1905 -1962) was one of the great early “trade teams,” built around the Alcyon bicycle brand and stacked with top talent in the sport’s formative decades. The Team won Paris-Roubaix an epic 12 times. They won the Tour de France four straight years before World War I, taking overall victory with François Faber (1909), Octave Lapize (1910), Gustave Garrigou (1911), and Odile Defraye (1912), and they also captured the Tour’s team prize from 1909 to 1912, later repeating that team prize run from 1927 to 1929. In the late 1920s, Alcyon’s dominance was so pronounced that multiple Tour winners came directly from the squad, including Nicolas Frantz and Maurice De Waele, emblematic of an era when powerful commercial teams could shape the entire race.

- [1923 Cycles Automoto & Pneus Hutchinson Team Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1923-cycles-automoto-pneus-hutchinson-team-advertising-poster/) - 1923 Cycles Automoto - Hutchinson Tires Cycling Team This striking French Automoto and Hutchinson poster reads as a showroom wall brought to life. At the center, the words “Nos coureurs” (our riders) anchor a bold, clover-shaped arrangement of rider portraits, each name tucked neatly into its own roundel, giving the piece the feel of a team lineup, part roll call, part fan display. Around the margins, crisp mechanical vignettes, labeled “Nos machines,” “Nos écrémeuses,” and “Nos fusils” (our machines, our cream separators & our rifles), nod to the wider Automoto world of precision hardware and modern utility, turning the border into a cabinet of curiosities. The whole composition is framed in thick black ornament, with warm orange accents that make the portraits pop against the pale ground. The historical backdrop is as strong as the design. In 1923, Henri Pélissier (not pictured) won the Tour de France riding for Automoto, with teammate Ottavio Bottecchia taking second overall, making it a defining season for the brand’s racing identity. The portraits feature members of the 1923 Automoto–Hutchinson team: Honoré Barthélémy, Maurice Ville, Robert Jacquinot, Victor Lenaers, Hector Heusghem, Marcel Lacour, Roger Lacolle, Henri Moerenhout, and Albert Jordens. The middle panel is a handy chart of French postal rates, shipping information, and rules. Down below, the typography shifts into pure brand theater, “Cycles Automoto” in oversized letters, and “Pneus Hutchinson” locked beneath it like a seal of quality. Even the sales pitch is period-perfect. The lower panel reads: Si vous désirez une bicyclette irréprochable, une arme de précision, une machine à coudre, une écrémeuse, adressez vous à l’agent AUTOMOTO ou écrivez 152, avenue Malakoff à Paris et demandez le catalogue. If you want an impeccable bicycle, a precision firearm, a sewing machine, or a cream separator, contact the AUTOMOTO agent, or write to 152 Avenue Malakoff in Paris and request the catalog. Altogether, it is a tangible slice of early twentieth-century consumer cycling culture, when racing heroes, factory brands, and everyday products all lived on the same page.

- [2006 Six Days of Amsterdam, Official Race Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2006-six-days-of-amsterdam-official-race-poster/) - 14de Amsterdamse Dasia Daagse, Velodrome Amsterdam, 16 to 21 October 2006 14th Amsterdam Dasia Six Days, Amsterdam Velodrome, October 16 - 21, 2006 The artwork leans hard into motion and spectacle. Against a bright teal field, broad purple and magenta arcs sweep across the page like velodrome banking caught in a spotlight, framing two stylized track riders bent low over their bars in full pursuit. The cyclists are rendered in hot reds and oranges with crisp highlights, their helmets and shoulders tucked tight, their wheels slicing through the composition makingthe whole scene feel fast, loud, and slightly dizzying in the best way. Oversized lettering, especially the huge “14de,” “dasia,” and “daagse,” lands right on top of the action in thick yellow with red edging, giving the poster the punch of a race announcer’s shout, while the smaller venue and sponsor elements keep it grounded as a real event bill, not just an illustration. Peter Schep and Danny Stam won the 2006 Six Days of Amsterdam. They sealed the victory on the final evening, surging into first place ahead of Iljo Keisse and Marco Villa with a late, decisive swing in the general classification.

Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely.Initially, the figurines were metal, but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars.In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia.

Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars.In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

The Tour of Morocco is an 8 Day stage race, founded in 1937. From 1957 to 1993 the event was strictly for amateurs. The Soviet team used the 1976 Tour de Maroc as preparation for the upcoming Montreal Olympics. Viktor Kapitanov was the winner of the Olympic road race in Rome in 1960 on a Cinelli which catapulted the Cinelli marque onto the world stage. He was the coach of the USSR cycling team after he retired. The rider is the great Eastonian cyclist Aavo Pikkuus, an Olympic champion as well as Peace Race winner, riding for the USSR. The bike is a red Colnago Super that Pikkuus used throughout his career. Pikkuus is lionized in Estonia as one of their greatest athletes. ** These beautiful large-format original press photographs are directly from the archives of Miroir du Cyclisme and Miroir-Sprint. The reverse of each photo bears the Miroir markings as a road map of its history and authenticity. The images are all stamped by either Miroir du Cyclisme or Miroir-Sprint; many have publication crop marks or show the page and magazine issue the photo was used in. Some even bear a unique stamp with the name of the photographer. Miroir du Cyclisme was a French monthly magazine, a photo-focused wonderland of cycling news and historical articles for 35 years, from 1960 to 1994. The companion publication, Miroir-Sprint, came out weekly and reported on news of various sports from 1946 to 1971. In the era before streaming and on-demand viewing, publications like Miroir were how fans kept up on racing results, followed their favorite riders, and stayed current on all things cycling. Renowned cycling photographers Henri and Marcel Besson, Jean Jaffre, Louis Lucchesi, Roger Monnet, Roger Touchard, and others were featured prominently in both publications, and works from these important photojournalists are included in the selection offered here. Maurice Vidal founded the magazine and ran it until he died in 1992, which directly contributed to its long-time consistent look and feel. The issues of both these publications are a treasure trove of cycling history; art and photographs are very collectible among cycling fans. Miroir Magazine NOT included.

Our lions were sourced over the years from riders, teams, and other collectors. Authentic podium lions have never been easy to acquire, as many were given away to family, friends, and the children of riders. They look great when on display and are among our most requested items to see when we have visitors to our home. And yes, all podium lions in our care are cage-free and house-trained. The Lion made its first appearance in 1987 as a marketing tool by the Yellow Jersey corporate sponsor, the French Bank Crédit Lyonnais (now called LCL). The lion, a long-time symbol of the bank, was the perfect thing to turn into an iconic stuffed animal to award the Yellow Jersey winners. There is something charming about these lions, particularly those from 10 to 30+ years ago. Each year, they are slightly different. Even within a year, the details of a given lion's face are quite distinct. Size: 17 inches tall (43 cm) Each lion is a unique and one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

Spring Classic. Brooklyn Team Jersey. Perfection. De Vlaeminck raced as a professional for 16 seasons, from 1969 to 1984, and was an absolute beast during the 1970s. Mention the name Roger De Vlaeminck, and the race that first comes to mind is Paris-Roubaix. He won it a record four times. He also hit the victory punch card at all the monuments, one of only three riders to do so. The others were Eddy Merckx and Rik Van Looy. It must be something in the Belgian water. Often overlooked in the American press is the fact that he won stages in all three grand tours, including 22 at the Giro d’Italia, which he raced nine times. And he just so happened to win the overall at Tirreno-Adriatico six years in a row. The fact that he was also the world cyclo-cross champion in 1975 sheds light on bike-handling skills that come in handy on those springtime cobblestones covered in mud and moss.

- [Vintage 7-Eleven Team Car Decal](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/vintage-7-eleven-team-car-decal/) - Since the earliest days of racing, race organizer vehicles, team cars, and other members of the official race caravan have displayed plaques identifying their roles: officials, press, medical, advertising, team support, and more. These began as hand-painted or printed signs on heavy metal sheets, bolted directly to the vehicles. Over time, they evolved into versions made of paper affixed to wood, durable board, or plastic. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, those formats gave way to windshield stickers, disposable one-race decals that quickly became the new standard. At the time, we knew there was no turning back. But we also saw something worth celebrating in the new format, and knew we had to find a way to preserve this cherished racing tradition. Suddenly, caravan signage, already fleeting by nature, became even more ephemeral. These markers have long made fantastic souvenirs, whether as a reminder of a race you witnessed in person or on TV, a tribute to a birth year, graduation, anniversary, or a legendary edition of a race. Above all, they make for striking, race-worn display pieces in any bike room, man cave, or she shed. We’re thrilled to offer a collection of these official race caravan plaques, many sourced directly from Jim Ochowicz, founder of the legendary 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, and CCC Cycling Teams. Part of a larger trove of cycling memorabilia, each of these unique modern markers has been carefully mounted by Brett, who teamed up with a local woodworker to affix them to custom-cut, 3/16” thick coated display panels. The scuffs, nicks, and bits of dirt? That’s part of the charm. Remember, these were race-used. Each piece is an authentic artifact. Items from 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, or CCC include a team-specific Certificate of Authenticity. Others, gathered through our own travels and from additional teams, come with a similar COA.

- [Vintage Motorola Team Decal, c. 1990-1996](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/vintage-motorola-team-decal-c-1990-1996/) - Since the earliest days of racing, race organizer vehicles, team cars, and other members of the official race caravan have displayed plaques identifying their roles: officials, press, medical, advertising, team support, and more. These began as hand-painted or printed signs on heavy metal sheets, bolted directly to the vehicles. Over time, they evolved into versions made of paper affixed to wood, durable board, or plastic. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, those formats gave way to windshield stickers, disposable one-race decals that quickly became the new standard. At the time, we knew there was no turning back. But we also saw something worth celebrating in the new format, and knew we had to find a way to preserve this cherished racing tradition. Suddenly, caravan signage, already fleeting by nature, became even more ephemeral. These markers have long made fantastic souvenirs, whether as a reminder of a race you witnessed in person or on TV, a tribute to a birth year, graduation, anniversary, or a legendary edition of a race. Above all, they make for striking, race-worn display pieces in any bike room, man cave, or she shed. We’re thrilled to offer a collection of these official race caravan plaques, many sourced directly from Jim Ochowicz, founder of the legendary 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, and CCC Cycling Teams. Part of a larger trove of cycling memorabilia, each of these unique modern markers has been carefully mounted by Brett, who teamed up with a local woodworker to affix them to custom-cut, 3/16” thick coated display panels. The scuffs, nicks, and bits of dirt? That’s part of the charm. Remember, these were race-used. Each piece is an authentic artifact. Items from 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, or CCC include a team-specific Certificate of Authenticity. Others, gathered through our own travels and from additional teams, come with a similar COA. These are difficult to find. When they’re gone, they’re gone. So if one speaks to you, grab it! All race stickers are sold unframed. Framed images are display ideas only.

- [Fausto Coppi, 1941 Signed Postal Card with Inscription and Rare Fascist Era Dating](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/fausto-coppi-signed-postal-card-with-inscription-and-rare-fascist-era-dating/) - A rare and beautifully preserved early signed portrait of cycling legend Fausto Coppi, dated October 3, 1941. This sepia-toned photographic postcard was produced by the esteemed Tortona studio Ballerini & Ginocchio, known for capturing many iconic images of Coppi during the early 1940s. Boldly signed in pen, the inscription reads: "Per Armandino Lamagni cordialmente Coppi Fausto 3-10-XIX" The date, marked “XIX,” reflects the 19th year of the Fascist Era, confirming this card was signed on October 3, 1941, just a year after Coppi’s breakthrough victory in the 1940 Giro d’Italia. Coppi was serving in the Italian military at the time, already a rising star in Italian sport. His confident expression and elegant pose capture the calm intensity that would define his legendary career. Fausto was the dominant cyclist in the Peloton after the Second World War. His many victories earned him the title Il Campionissimo (“Champion of Champions”). He was an all-around racing cyclist: he excelled in both climbing and time trialing and was also a great sprinter. He won the Giro d’Italia five times (1940, 1947, 1949, 1952, 1953), the Tour de France twice (1949 and 1952), and the World Championship in 1953. Other notable results include winning the Giro di Lombardia five times, the Milan–San Remo three times, as well as wins at Paris–Roubaix and La Flèche Wallonne and setting the hour record (45.798 km) in 1942.

- [1910 Tour de France Postcards, Complete Set of 25 (Museum Piece)](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1910-tour-de-france-postcards-complete-set-of-25/) - 1910 Tour de France Postcard Set Complete Color Set of 25 This striking postcard series is one of the earliest to document a specific Tour de France, capturing the drama and intensity of the 1910 race. Produced by Emile Dumont of Liège, the set features tinted photographs taken during the event. Each card includes a white caption strip with the title “Tour de France 1910” and a description of the featured rider or scene. Highlights of the set include a rare color card of Henri Cornet, winner of the 1904 Tour and one of the few known color images of him. Tour champions Octave Lapize and François Faber are also prominently featured. The card backs are standard postcard format, with “Emile Dumont, éditeur, Liège” printed vertically along the left edge. The 1910 edition of the Tour was the first to tackle the high mountains, a brutal shift introduced by race organizer Henri Desgrange. On one punishing climb, eventual winner Octave Lapize famously shouted at the officials, “Vous êtes des assassins! Oui, des assassins!” (“You are murderers! Yes, murderers!”). Several cards in this set depict Lapize battling those very climbs. Tragically, despite his triumph in the Tour, Lapize faced an even harsher fate in World War I—he was shot down and killed in July 1917 while serving as a military pilot. This historically significant set offers a rare glimpse into the early days of the Tour de France and serves as a powerful tribute to the riders who helped shape its legacy. All the cards on our site are original, with no reproductions. As many of the cards are quite old and one of a kind, please look at the photos carefully to determine the condition. Size: 9 x 14 cm

They look great when on display and are among our most requested items to see when we have visitors to our home. And yes, all podium lions in our care are cage-free and house-trained.

Even within a year, the details of a given lion's face are quite distinct.

The multilingual typography—Dutch, French, and English—reflects both Belgium’s linguistic diversity and the global scope of the event. Maurizio Fondriest left Ronse with the rainbow jersey on his back in 1988 after a thrilling finale, not without controversy. Canada’s Steve Bauer, the 1984 bronze medallist in a race won by Belgium’s Claude Criquielion, bridged across to Fondriest and Criquielion with only a kilometer remaining. Bauer then led out the sprint and changed gear as Criquielion looked to pass on the inside, with Bauer then appearing to nudge his rival with his elbow. Criquielion, racing just a few miles from his hometown, was sent crashing to the ground. Fondriest rounded Bauer to win, and boos rang out from the partisan Belgian crowd. Bauer was disqualified, and Criquielion walked across the line in 11th, dragging his damaged bike in one hand and raising his other in protest. Criquielion would go on to sue Bauer for assault, although the case was thrown out by the court after a saga that lasted more than three years. Criquielion’s career also included victory at the Tour of Flanders, but defeat in Ronse would become the Belgian’s most enduring result.

- [Cycles Cycles Dura Poster. c. 1924](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/cycles-cycles-dura-poster-c-1924/) - Striking original Belgian advertising poster for Cycles Dura. A powerful racing cyclist dominates the composition, riding straight toward the viewer on a gleaming road bicycle. He wears a green long-sleeved jersey with DURA across the chest, a white cap with goggles, and a spare tubular tire looped over his shoulders. Behind him stretches the historic Antwerp skyline with a statue on a tall pedestal to the left, tiled roofs and façades in soft cream and red tones, and the prominent Cathedral of Our Lady with its clock and spire to the right. A rich yellow sky fills the background, and a deep charcoal border frames the scene, which makes the rider stand out dramatically at the center of the sheet. The typography is clean and modern. “Cycles Dura” runs boldly along the bottom in large yellow letters. A reserved “AGENT:” panel allows a local shop name to be added. At the top, three badge-like logos appear, one for Cycles Dura, one for Cycles Veni, and one for The Roger Cycle, Liége. Designed by the artist Cello and printed in Brussels by Société Anonyme Belge. With its bold color blocks, low viewpoint, and strong branding, this poster is an outstanding example of interwar Belgian cycling advertising and a striking focal point for any cycling collection. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters, allowing them to be displayed or framed without compromising their value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction. Year: 1924 Artist: Cello Imprimerie: Société Anonyme Belge, Bruxelles Size: 59 x 86 cm (23 ¼ x 33 ¾ inches) Posters are sold unframed.

- [1949 Tour de France Official Stage 1 Results Poster, Overall Race Winner - Fausto Coppi](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1949-tour-de-france-official-stage-1-results-poster-overall-race-winner-fausto-coppi/) - 1949 Tour de France Paris–Reims, Stage 1 Results Poster Colorful original promotional poster for the 1949 Tour de France, designed as both an advertisement sheet and a results board for Stage 1, Paris–Reims. In the center, a bright red map of France shows the whole 1949 Tour route looping around the country, with stage towns highlighted along the course, and Paris at the center. The heading above reads “Tour de France 1949” in blue script. Surrounding the map is a border of red, blue, and white rectangles, each promoting local businesses, cafés, hotels, and shops, many with Montpellier addresses, turning the piece into a snapshot of provincial commercial life in post-war France. The lower third of the poster is reserved for race information. A bold title, “ÉTAPE PARIS–REIMS,” sits above a large blank table with columns for “Classement de l’étape” and “Classement Général”, where stage and overall results could be written in after the day’s racing. The imprint “Publicité Montpellier – Index” and credit to “PIRA, décorateur” appear along the bottom margin. The 1949 Tour de France was the 36th edition of the race, run from 30 June to 24 July 1949 over 21 stages and roughly 4,800 kilometers, starting and finishing in Paris. It was won overall by Fausto Coppi of Italy, ahead of Gino Bartali and Jacques Marinelli. Stage 1, the stage highlighted on this poster, covered 182 kilometers from Paris to Reims on 30 June. French rider Marcel Dussault won the stage and pulled on the first yellow jersey of the 1949 Tour. As a result, this poster not only advertises the race route and local sponsors, it also provides a period correct framework for recording Dussault’s opening victory and the early general classification of one of Coppi’s most famous Tours. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper.

- [Vélodrome d’Orléans, c. 1920s, Only Known Example of this Original Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/velodrome-dorleans-c-1920s-only-known-example-of-this-original-poster/) - Dynamic original French poster advertising the Vélodrome d’Orléans, the cycling track located at 33, quai du Roi on the Loire riverfront in Orléans. The design is composed of bold, flat-color shapes: two track cyclists fill the lower half of the image, one in deep blue and yellow in the foreground, the other in darker tones just behind, both crouched low over their handlebars in a sprint. A rich red background and narrow blue border frame the action, while large cream lettering at the top reads “VÉLODROME d’ORLÉANS” with the address set at upper right. In smaller type, the poster notes that the velodrome is the property of the Union Cycliste d’Orléans, reflecting that the track was owned by the local cycling club created from the merger of the Club vélocipédique d’Orléans and the Société vélocipédique du Loiret. The velodrome itself was inaugurated in 1922 as a 200-meter outdoor wooden track with steeply banked turns designed for high-speed racing, and it hosted events through the 1920s. With its strong graphic style, limited color palette, and expressive depiction of track racing, this poster is an excellent example of early twentieth-century French cycling promotion. This is believed to be the only known surviving example of this poster. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

- [Jacques Marinelli, Oldest Living Yellow Jersey Wearer, Signed Photo](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/jacques-marinelli-oldest-living-yellow-jersey-wearer-signed-photo/) - Jacques Marinelli, the oldest living yellow jersey wearer, wore the yellow jersey for six days at the 1949 Tour de France before finishing third behind Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali. Marinelli rode the Tour six times between 1948 and 1954 but finished only in 1949 and 1952 when he came 31st. He became the first rider in the Tour to write a column for L'Équipe, in 1949. Marinelli became known as "la perruche" during the 1949 Tour. Riding for the regional Ile-de-France team rather than the national team, Marinelli rose above his humble status by attacking repeatedly during the first four days. On the fourth he came second and became race leader, leading a field that included Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali. He exchanged the green jersey of the Ile-de-France for the yellow jersey of the leader. The next morning the organizer, Jacques Goddet, wrote in L'Équipe: "Our budgerigar has been transformed into a canary", a reference to Marinelli's small stature in yellow. The nickname stuck – but "budgerigar" rather than "canary". Marinelli rode above himself and exploited the rivalry between Coppi and Bartali to keep the lead for another five days, as far as the Pyrenees. Marinelli still has the yellow jersey, although it has been eaten by moths. He said: "For a great champion to wear the yellow jersey, that's normal. But when it's an amateur that's different, and then again my height, I think that's what contributed to my popularity." Please Note: This item is a modern photographic reproduction of an old postal card with an original Jacques Marinelli Signature.

- [Campy Van - 1970s Retro Groove - Die Cast Metal](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/campagnolo-toy-van/) - This little beauty has amazing details! Be sure to zoom in to see the side-view mirrors, windshield wipers, spare wheels on top, functioning rimmed wheels, and more. Classic 1/43 scale. For anyone who loved racing in the 1970s and 1980s, Campagnolo was king. Everything about Campy exuded class, elegance, and victory. With minimal competition at the time, Campy ruled the roads. The halcyon days of French components were clearly in the rearview mirror, and Japanese companies SunTour and Shimano were not yet entrenched on the racing side of the cycling ledger. Simply stated, it was a glorious time to be a fan of all things Italian. In Italy, there was the iconic blue Campy Van, a fitted out 1972 Fiat 238 that was a fixture at races all over the continent. The van was a fan favorite magnet that countless up and coming riders lined up to be photographed with their bikes in the mid-1970s. This die-cast model is quite a nice homage to the original one that ruled the road. I have mine sitting on my office desk. I often catch myself mindlessly rolling the car around on the desk during conference calls. It is sort of a fidget spinner for a racing enthusiast. Die-cast model cars have a long history that is entwined with cycling. During the 1950s and 1960s, it seemed like every company that had a car in the Tour de France caravan also had a die-cast model to sell to fans. It is nice to see that this van carries the die-cast tradition. The body is metal, unlike many others today, which are entirely plastic. It’s funny how things as simple as a toy car can transport one away to a rose-colored time when all was right in the world, Breaking Away was on the big screen, and a company from the magical land of Vicenza, Italy ruled the day.

In this photo, Frantz is leading the charge on the Allos, the first of the two mountains of that day's stage. Looking at the image, you can see both pain and determination on his face as he climbs the muddy road in the rain, his bike and body splattered with mud. Although he did not win the stage, he retained his overall race lead all the way to Paris. Not only did he win the 1928 Tour de France by a margin of 50 minutes over second-place finisher Andre Leducq, but he also held the race leader slot from beginning to end!

- [Cycles Anvers-Velos Poster. c. 1923](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/cycles-anvers-velos-poster-c-1923/) - Striking original Belgian advertising poster for Cycles Anvers-Velos, a bicycle maker based in Antwerp. The design centers on a powerful racing cyclist in a red and white jersey that reads “ANVERS VELOS,” riding a pale bicycle along the waterfront.

The tall Gothic spire of the Cathedral of Our Lady anchors the right side of the image, making the city unmistakable. A vivid yellow sky fills the background, making the red figure and boats glow, while a deep chocolate-brown border frames the entire scene. The typography is clean and modern. “CYCLES” appears in silver at the top, while “ANVERS-VELOS” runs boldly along the bottom in large white letters. A reserved “AGENT:” panel allows a local shop name to be added.

The layout is clean and vertical. At the top, the emblems of the Union Cycliste Internationale and the Royal Belgian Cycling League are set against black panels, with the familiar UCI logo in rainbow colors. Below, the event title appears in Dutch, French, and German, followed by the schedule: track racing in Gent, 21 to 25 August 1988, then road racing in Ronse, 27 and 28 August 1988. The centerpiece is a bold graphic on a deep black rectangle. A white outline suggests a racing bicycle, while the rider is composed of staggered blocks of blue, red, yellow, green, and other colors that stream across the page, creating a feeling of acceleration and echoing the rainbow bands of a world champion jersey. At the bottom of the text block, an international cyclotourist gathering on 26 August is noted, and a final strip includes the logo of the Blaarmeersen velodrome in Ghent. The whole composition feels very late eighties in the best way, with clean typography and a graphic look that still feels modern. In Ronse, the Road Championships were packed into two intense days. The men’s professional road race on the hilly Ronse circuit was won by Italian rider Maurizio Fondriest after a dramatic finale, earning him the right to wear the rainbow jersey. The women’s team time trial over 54 kilometers was also won by Italy, with Monica Bandini, Roberta Bonanomi, Maria Canins, and Francesca Galli riding to gold. In Gent, the UCI Track World Championships crowned new stars and confirmed legends.

- [Peloton Rider,  Salza  c.1970](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/peloton-rider-salza-c-1970-45/) - Original Vintage Diecast Metal Peloton Rider These little beauties are a fantastic addition to any cycling collection. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on. Maker: Salza Diecast Metal Size: 2 " tall x 2 1/8" long (5 x 5.5 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

These quirky riders with the signature potato-shaped nose, known as the "Big Nose" or "Gros Nez" version, were originally the result of a poorly made mold. What started as a mistake has resulted in a rare and popular collectible variation. Founded in 1930 by Henri Roger in Paris, Fonderie Roger began producing toy cyclists in the 1950s. The early models, crafted from a zinc alloy called zamak, featured separate bases that often went missing, leaving the riders unable to stand upright. This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular. By the mid-1960s, the factory relocated to Egreville, France, where it produced thousands of cyclists annually, primarily for markets in France, Belgium, and Italy. Following Henri's retirement in 1960, his son Pierre Roger took over the business. Under Pierre’s leadership, the company expanded its product line to include toy cars marketed under the PR label. Today, the Foundrie Roger continues the tradition of crafting die-cast metal cyclists with the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship. Maker: Fonderie Roger Diecast Metal, Zamak Size: 1 5/8 tall x 2 long (42 x 50 mm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

This original poster from the 1943 edition of the race beautifully captures the era with the goggles and cap on the handlebars of the bike. Of all the various races around the world, the Vuelta Cataluña and the Peace Race arguably had the most dynamic and consistently high-quality poster art in racing. First held in 1911, the Vuelta a Cataluña is the fourth oldest cycling stage race in the world. Only the Tour de France, the Tour of Belgium, and the Giro d'Italia are older. In the 1940s, the Vuelta a Cataluña was a fall race held in September. The 1943 race was won by Spanish rider Julián Berrendero of the F.C. Barcelona team. Berrendero won the Vuelta a España in both 1941 and 1942. He was the winner of the Mountain Classification at the Tour de France in 1936, along with winning the Mountain Classification at the Vuelta in both 1942 and 1945.

- [1924 Cycles J.B. Louvet Racing Team “Palmarès” Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1924-cycles-j-b-louvet-racing-team-palmares-poster/) - Cycles J.B. Louvet - 1924 Team Results Beautiful original French advertising poster celebrating the 1924 racing season of the Cycles J.B. Louvet team. The design reads like a giant honor roll of victories. At the top, bold red and green lettering announces “Cycles J.B. Louvet, Palmarès de 1924,” followed by two columns of results, one for road races, one for track. A red and green braided border frames the poster, echoing the Louvet team colors. Six monochrome rider portraits sit in round medallions around the results panel, each in a J.B. Louvet jersey: Hector Martin and Marcel Godard on the left, Marcel Colleu and Georges Detreille on the right, Théo Wynsdau at the lower left, and Van de Casteele at the lower right. At the bottom, a proud slogan declares that Cycles J.B. Louvet remains independent of any consortium, emphasizing that the firm remained an independent bicycle maker. Founded by former racer Jean Baptiste Louvet in 1903, J.B. Louvet was a prominent French bicycle maker based near Paris. The firm built quality road and track machines and quickly invested in racing as its main form of advertising. For decades, the professional J.B. Louvet team was a fixture of European cycling, with its green jerseys and red band seen in the Tour de France, on the road classics, and on the great velodromes. This poster captures the moment when Louvet could boast a full season of top results across both road and track, proof that its bicycles were winning at the highest level. The central “Sur Route” section of the poster lists classic point to point races of the day, including Paris–Bruxelles, Paris–Longwy, Paris–Arras, Paris–Ménin, Paris–Calais, Paris–Nancy and Bruxelles–Paris, together with the Belgian National Championship for independent riders, and attributes first place or leading French rider status to these Louvet professionals. The “Sur Piste” block at the bottom centre highlights three major track achievements tied to the Louvet name: Bol d’Or, a prestigious 24-hour paced track race, Grand Prix de Paris (vitesse), and Championnat du Monde (vitesse). The poster not only celebrates the house team’s road wins but also associates the Louvet name with the era's most famous endurance and sprint specialists. This piece is both a season results sheet and a powerful piece of brand advertising, using the 1924 victories of the Louvet professionals, along with the fame of track stars like Oscar Egg, Maurice Schilles, and Piet Moeskops, to promote J.B. Louvet bicycles as race-proven machines at the highest level of European cycling. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters, allowing them to be displayed or framed without compromising their value.

- [1952 Terrot Champion de France Poster with Adolphe Deledda](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1952-terrot-champion-de-france-poster-with-adolphe-deledda/) - La qualité Terrot a parlé - Terrot Quality has Spoken Striking original French advertising poster celebrating Terrot sponsored rider Adolphe Deledda and his victory in the 1952 French National Road Race Championship. The design features bold blue and red typography that proclaims “Terrot Champion de France 1952,” surrounding a central race photograph that captures Deledda in his Terrot jersey, sprinting to the line. At the bottom, the slogan “la qualité Terrot a parlé” reinforces the message that Deledda’s national title proves the quality of Terrot bicycles. Adolphe Deledda was born in Italy, later became a French citizen, and built a successful professional career, including major wins such as the 1952 French national road title,a stage at the 1947 Vuelta, and two Stages at the Tour de France. He rode for the Terrot trade team, giving the Dijon based Terrot firm a powerful marketing story that connected its production bicycles to elite racing success. Terrot was a long-standing French manufacturer of bicycles and motorcycles, active from the late nineteenth century onward, and widely known for sponsoring competitive road and cyclo-cross teams. This poster brings together that history in a single wonderful image. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

- [Cycles E.V.M. by Francisco Tamagno - EXCEPTIONAL Component Art - Framebuilder](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/cycles-e-v-m-by-francisco-tamagno/) - Cycles EVM Pièces Détachées & Accessoires pour Cycles & Automobiles Spare Parts & Accessories for Bicycles & Automobiles The EVM poster is a striking artifact of early 20th-century French commercial art, promoting spare parts and accessories for bicycles and automobiles. Though little is documented about the company "EVM" itself, the poster reflects the dynamic spirit of the Belle Époque, when cycling was at its peak and industrial craftsmanship was a source of national pride. Rendered in rich tones and framed by mechanical motifs, the poster highlights a meticulous technician inspecting a bicycle frame—an image meant to inspire confidence in the precision and quality of EVM’s components. Its swirling chains, gleaming tools, and bold red branding create a vivid, kinetic composition typical of turn-of-the-century advertising design. The artwork is attributed to Francisco Tamagno (1851–1933), a prolific Italian poster artist known for his commercial lithographs during the golden age of the illustrated poster. Tamagno worked extensively in Paris and contributed to promotional campaigns for various industries, including transport, food, and fashion. His style often blended realism with decorative Art Nouveau elements, making everyday products visually compelling and culturally aspirational. This poster for EVM is a fine example of his ability to marry technical subject matter with artistic flair, transforming a utilitarian workshop scene into a powerful visual marketing piece. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper.

This rare and visually arresting poster features Georges Sérès, one of the premier track cyclists of the 1920s, captured mid-race in full stayer gear, including a heavy leather helmet, French National Team jersey, and black leather racing shoes.

Over 15 years ago, we acquired the remaining known examples in a direct purchase in France.

It never ceases to amaze us what lurks in the attics of Europe! A true gem for collectors of cycling history, vintage sport, or early 20th-century design.

- [1891 Paris-Brest-Paris Medal - Awarded to A. Ballman - RARE](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1891-paris-brest-paris-medal-awarded-to-a-ballman-rare/) - 1891 Inaugural Paris-Brest-Paris Finishers Medal Awarded to A. Ballman, 8 Days, 4 Hours, 15 Minutes 1891, the inaugural Paris-Brest-Paris (PBP) bicycle race marked a turning point in cycling history. Out of 400 entrants, only 200 took to the start line, and a mere 100 completed the grueling 1,200-kilometer journey. This event challenged physical endurance and the prevailing understanding of what could be achieved on a bicycle. At the time, embarking on a long-distance cycling journey was a daring and uncharted feat. The potential risks to the human body from such a strenuous endeavor were a cause for concern, with some experts even speculating about permanent injury or death. The concept of riding great distances on open roads was revolutionary, pushing athletes to redefine the limits of what was possible with this new mode of transportation. Piere Griffard, editor of Le Petit Journal, conceived the race as the ultimate test of both bicycle durability and a rider's determination. Participation was restricted to male French cyclists, who could employ up to ten paid pacers strategically positioned along the route to aid with drafting and provide mechanical support. Since reliable automobiles were some years off, race monitoring was done through a network of event judges and observers connected by train and telegraph. Reporters dispatched race updates to Paris, keeping the public engaged with special newspaper editions that chronicled the event in real time. The race also drew interest from bicycle and tire manufacturers eager to showcase the superiority of their products. Charles Terront, a name that would go down in the annals of French cycling, emerged as the victor of the first PBP. His triumphant return to Paris, greeted by a cheering crowd of thousands, solidified his status as a hero. The race's extreme difficulty meant it wasn't held again for another ten years, further underscoring the significance of Terront's victory. Among those who completed the first PBP was A. Ballman, who was awarded this stunning medal. He finished in 70th place with a time of 8 days, 4 hours, and 15 minutes (196 hours and 15 minutes). As a PBP ancien, his name is recorded in the Great Book, along with all others who have conquered this monumental event. On Ballman's medal, the obverse, with artwork by H. Dubois, depicts three cyclists on high-wheel bicycles racing through the countryside, while the reverse features his name, finishing time, and cycling club affiliation—Veloce Club Havrais. The laurel wreath surrounding the inscription is a classic symbol of victory. The words "Course Petit Journal" at the top pay homage to the race's organizer, Le Petit Journal, while the engraving at the bottom commemorates the event's name, Paris-Brest-Paris. A delicate beaded border surrounds all.

This vibrant Campagnolo poster celebrates Jan Ullrich’s dominant victory in the 1997 Tour de France. The image captures Ullrich in full flight in the maillot jaune for Team Deutsche Telekom, tucked low over his pink Pinarello, riding Campagnolo-equipped wheels and components. The blurred background heightens the sense of speed. At the same time, the layout frames him with bold typography: “Tour de France 1997” down the left, “Bravo Ullrich!” across the top, and the yellow Campagnolo script with the Italian tagline “Tecnologia ed emozione” (Technology & Emotion) across the bike. The 1997 Tour, the 84th edition of the race, ran from 5 to 27 July over 21 stages plus a prologue and about 3,950 kilometers. Ullrich won the general classification in 100 hours 30 minutes 35 seconds, finishing 9 minutes 9 seconds ahead of Richard Virenque, with Marco Pantani third, the largest winning margin since 1984. He also took the young rider classification, while his Telekom teammate Erik Zabel won the points classification and Virenque claimed both the mountains and combativity awards; Team Deutsche Telekom topped the team classification. Born in 1973, Jan Ullrich is a German former professional road racer and remains Germany’s only Tour de France champion. He announced himself by finishing second and winning the best young rider classification at the 1996 Tour, then returned to take overall victory in 1997. Away from the Tour he won the 1999 Vuelta a España, and at the 2000 Sydney Olympics he earned road race gold and time trial silver.

This striking Italian poster pays homage to Learco Guerra, the “Human Locomotive,” one of the dominant road racers of the 1930s. Set against the clean circle of a bicycle wheel, Guerra’s portrait fills the sheet, his face rendered in warm sepia tones while his jersey carries the green, white, and red of the Italian tricolore. It is a classic hero image, presenting Guerra not just as a rider, but as the embodiment of Italian cycling pride. Guerra’s palmarès more than justify the treatment. He became World Road Race Champion in 1931, then went on to win the Giro d’Italia in 1934, adding monuments such as Milano–San Remo (1933) and the Giro di Lombardia (1934) along the way. Between 1930 and 1934, he captured the Italian National Road Title five consecutive times, and in 1931, he was the first rider ever to wear the Maglia Rosa, the new pink leader’s jersey of the Giro. This poster captures him in that golden period, when his relentless power on the flat stages earned him the nickname “La locomotiva umana.” Printed by Arti Grafiche Minarelli, Bologna, the piece combines delicate draftsmanship with bold graphic design, making it a beautiful crossover between fine art and cycling history. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper.

- [Greg Lemond, Signed 1983 World Championships - Gitane Promotional Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/greg-lemond-signed-1983-world-championships-gitane-promotional-poster/) - Signed by Greg Lemond Greg Lemond continues the Cycles Gitane legend of victory... This vibrant Gitane poster celebrates Greg LeMond’s historic victory at the 1983 World Championships. The headline, “THE LEGEND CONTINUES,” sits above the podium scene from the men’s professional road race in Altenrhein, Switzerland, where LeMond stood in the center wearing the freshly awarded rainbow jersey. To his right is silver medalist Adrie van der Poel in the orange Dutch national kit, and to his left bronze medalist Stephen Roche in Irish green, a snapshot of cycling legends sharing the same podium. LeMond’s win in 1983 made him the first American male rider to become professional road race world champion, and he did it while racing for Renault–Elf–Gitane, the dominant French superteam of the late nineteen seventies and early nineteen eighties. The lower panel of the poster reinforces that dominance, listing the many grand tour and classic victories of Team Gitane, including multiple Tour de France wins, the Vuelta a España, the Dauphiné Libéré, the Bordeaux–Paris, and Paris–Roubaix. Centered beneath the text is the French tricolore and the classic Gitane, the Legendary Bicycles of France logo. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

- [Miguel Indurain Breaks the Hour Record, 1994 Campagnolo Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/miguel-indurain-breaks-the-hour-record-1994-campagnolo-advertising-poster/) - Miguel Indurain & Campagnolo Break the Hour Record This dynamic Campagnolo poster captures Miguel Indurain at full speed on his radical Pinarello Espada during his 1994 hour record-breaking ride of 53.040 km in Bordeaux. Dressed head to toe in the Banesto team colors, Indurain is locked in his trademark time trial position, riding the carbon fibre Espada with its matching Campagnolo disc wheels and bold red, yellow, and blue graphics. The first version of the Espada was designed for the hour record and built in collaboration with F1 aerodynamic specialists Ing. Giacchi; it became iconic for its sculpted one-piece frame and disc wheels. Miguel Indurain was a spectacular force on a bicycle, spending 60 days in the Yellow Jersey during his Tour de France career. From 1991 to 1995, he won five consecutive Tours de France, making him the fourth rider in history to win five Tours—and the only one to do so consecutively. He also claimed back-to-back victories at the Giro d’Italia in 1992 and 1993, becoming one of only seven riders to complete the Giro–Tour double in the same season. Indurain holds the record for the most consecutive Tour wins, and shares the all-time win record (five) with Jacques Anquetil, Bernard Hinault, and Eddy Merckx. Indurain’s extraordinary physiology and calm dominance earned him the nickname “Big Mig.” Standing 1.88 meters (6 ft 2 in) tall and weighing 80 kilograms (176 lb), he defied expectations in the high mountains and was unmatched in time trials. His talent was clear from a young age: at 18, he became the youngest rider to win the Spanish amateur national road championship; at 20, he led the Vuelta a España and won a stage of the Tour de l’Avenir, signaling the rise of one of cycling’s most iconic champions. This poster celebrates the partnership between a dominant stage-race champion, his futuristic Pinarello, and Campagnolo’s cutting-edge time-trial technology. The rich colors, trackside blur, and close framing make it a striking addition to any cycling collection. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

Two cubist-inspired riders in sunbaked colors dominate the design, one drinking from a bottle as they roll past a herd of bulls and a mounted horseman, a witty nod to classic Spanish imagery. Above them floats the blue Westinghouse circle W logo, with the company name in big red letters anchoring the lower half of the sheet. The 1965 Vuelta ran from 29 April to 16 May, over 18 stages and roughly 3,410 kilometers, starting in Vigo and finishing in Bilbao. Raymond Poulidor was the undeniable favorite to win the 1965 Vuelta. But his teammate, Rolf Wolfshohl, and four-time world cyclo-cross champion, would be the overall victor.After winning Stage 1, Rik Van Looy put on the first leader's jersey. Van Looy went on to win eight stages, finish third overall, and win the Green Points Jersey. Raymond Poulidor won the Stage 4a Time Trial, taking the overall lead in the race. But in an unexpected turn of events on Stage 8, a six-man breakaway succeded, leaving Poulidor 5'10" behind his teammate Rolf Wolfshohl at the end of the day. Poulidor won two stages of the 1965 Vuelta but finished second, 6' 36" behind the overall winner Wolfshohl. The poster is signed “Martinez Ortiz,” referring to the Basque painter and poster artist Nicolás Martínez Ortiz de Zárate. Active in mid-twentieth-century Spain, Martínez Ortiz worked across painting, murals, and advertising art, and he is documented as the designer of at least one other race poster for the 1967 Vuelta.

The design features a rider charging straight at the viewer against a blue globe, anchored by the black world championship circle and arcing UCI rainbow bands. Venue blocks call out all three host cities and dates exactly as they were raced: the track world championships in Rocourt, near Liège, from 1 to 7 August 1963, the 100-kilometer amateur team time trial in Herentals on 8 August 1963, and the road world championships in Ronse on 10 and 11 August 1963. The 1963 professional men’s road race in Ronse was won by Belgian rider Benoni Beheyt, ahead of Rik Van Looy and Jo de Haan, giving the host nation the rainbow jersey on home roads.

He trained at the Academy in Wetteren and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent, worked as a painter, draftsman, watercolorist, and lithographer, and became well known for posters and stamp designs. Verbaere created numerous travel posters for the Belgian National Railway, NMBS or SNCB, from 1935 to 1967, and designed Belgian postage stamps between 1962 and 1970. His imagery often drew on Flemish towns and the river Scheldt. He is also credited as the designer of cycling world championship posters, including Belgian events.

- [Tour de France Yellow Jersey, Peloton Rider, Quiralu c.1950s](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/tour-de-france-yellow-jersey-peloton-rider-quiralu-c-1950s/) - Original Vintage Diecast Metal Peloton Rider These little beauties are a fantastic addition to any cycling collection. Quiralu was a French toy company renowned for its high-quality products during the mid-20th century. The company was founded in 1932 by Émile Quirin, who also operated a family art foundry in Luxeuil-les-Bains, in the Haute-Saône department of France. Initially, Quiralu focused on manufacturing a variety of metal products, including household items and decorative objects. However, in the late 1930s, the company shifted its focus to producing metal toys. Quiralu quickly gained a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail in its toy designs. During the 1940s and 1950s, the company enjoyed significant success and became well-known for its miniature figures. These included cyclists, toy soldiers, cars, cowboys, athletes, and various characters from popular culture. Quiralu used a process known as zamak casting, involving the use of a zinc alloy to create detailed shapes by pouring molten metal into molds. In 1941, Émile's son-in-law, Hubert Desgranges, took over the business. Later, in 1948, Émile’s grandson, Bernard Desgranges, assumed leadership of the company. Sadly, the foundry closed in 1964. Despite its relatively short existence, Quiralu's figures remain highly prized by collectors today for their accuracy and intricate details.

- [Octave Lapize, Three Time French Champion, 1910 Tour de France Winner & 3x Paris-Roubaix Winner](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/octave-lapize-three-time-french-champion-1910-tour-de-france-winner-3x-paris-roubaix-winner/) - Octave Lapize, 3 Fois Champion de France Octave Lapize, Three-Time French Champion This striking early 20th-century French lithograph celebrates Octave Lapize, one of the great names of pre-war cycling. Printed by Imprimerie Marcial, Goffin & Cie in Paris, the image shows Lapize in full flight, captured from a photographic study credited “d’après Cliché Boldo”—literally “after a photograph by Boldo.” The minimalist background and tight frontal composition emphasize both Lapize’s determination and the aesthetic simplicity typical of French sporting posters of the Belle Époque. Lapize’s accomplishments were extraordinary. Born in 1887, he dominated both the road and the velodrome before his career was cut short by World War I. He was a three-time French national champion, winner of Paris–Roubaix three consecutive years (1909, 1910, 1911), and the victor of the 1910 Tour de France, the first edition to include the Pyrenees. His furious climb over the Tourmalet that year and his famous outburst at race officials—calling them “assassins!”—became one of cycling’s enduring legends. Lapize later turned to aviation and served as a fighter pilot in the French Air Force, where he was killed in action in 1917 at only 29 years old. The print stands as both a tribute to one of France’s earliest sporting heroes and a superb example of early cycling-era design from Paris’s renowned Marcial Goffin studio.

- [Miguel Indurain, 1993 Campagnolo Advertising Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/miguel-indurain-1993-campagnolo-advertising-poster/) - Miguel Indurain - Tour de France - Giro d'Italia - 1993 Campagnolo - For 60 Years the Leader Powerful image of Miguel Indurain in full time trial position for G.S. Banesto, promoting Campagnolo during a season when he won both the Tour de France and the Giro d’Italia. The composition places Indurain and his Pinarello at speed against a soft-focus television moto. Vibrant color, crisp period branding, and an unmistakable champion at the height of his dominance give the piece instant presence on a wall. Miguel Indurain was a spectacular force on a bicycle, spending 60 days in the Yellow Jersey during his Tour de France career. From 1991 to 1995, he won five consecutive Tours de France, making him the fourth rider in history to win five Tours—and the only one to do so consecutively. He also claimed back-to-back victories at the Giro d’Italia in 1992 and 1993, becoming one of only seven riders to complete the Giro–Tour double in the same season. With Lance Armstrong’s seven titles stripped, Indurain now holds the record for the most consecutive Tour wins, and shares the all-time win record (five) with Jacques Anquetil, Bernard Hinault, and Eddy Merckx. Indurain’s extraordinary physiology and calm dominance earned him the nickname “Big Mig.” Standing 1.88 meters (6 ft 2 in) tall and weighing 80 kilograms (176 lb), he defied expectations in the high mountains and was unmatched in time trials. His talent was clear from a young age: at 18, he became the youngest rider to win the Spanish amateur national road championship; at 20, he led the Vuelta a España and won a stage of the Tour de l’Avenir, signaling the rise of one of cycling’s most iconic champions.

This original German advertising poster for Dürkopp bicycles features a dynamic velodrome scene of the renowned Six-day duo Gustav Kilian and Heinz Vopel at the moment of a changeover, the exchange used in Madison style relay racing where partners alternate time on the track and launch one another back into the race with a hand sling. The layout combines a vivid blue painted field with a large red Dürkopp logotype, period script slogans, and a photo credited “Photo Kloss.” Kilian and Vopel were among the best known track pairs of the 1930s and 1940s, winning many major Six Days in Europe and North America, including Wembley in 1936, and Vopel’s career tally reached well over two dozen victories, most of them with Kilian as his partner. The copy proclaims that Dürkopp brand bicycles are proof of outstanding manufacturing, and closes with the line “Dürkopp, a bicycle for winners,” which neatly matches the image of two champions in full flight on the steep boards.

Featuring the final general classification trio, Marco Pantani in yellow for Mercatone Uno Bianchi at center, Jan Ullrich of Team Telekom at left, and Bobby Julich of Cofidis at right. Pantani’s triumph was built on his famous assault over the Col du Galibier and the mountain finish at Les Deux Alpes, a move that turned a deficit to Ullrich into a decisive lead that he carried to Paris. The victory completed Pantani’s Giro and Tour double in the same season and made him the first Italian Tour winner since Felice Gimondi in 1965. The Festina doping scandal famously disrupted the 1998 Tour de France, but it still delivered a dramatic race. Despite its controversy, the 1998 Tour is remembered as a pivotal and eventful event in modern cycling history. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

- [1953 Vigorelli Velodrome  - Italy - American Madison Racing Starring Coppi, Koblet, Bartali and Many More](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1953-vigorelli-velodrome-italy-american-madison-racing-starring-coppi-koblet-bartali-and-many-more/) - Al Velodromo Maspes‑Vigorelli – Internazionale Americana per il G.P. Gaslo, 6 Aprile 1953 Madiosn Racing at the Vigorelli Velodrome, starring Coppi, Koblet, Bartali, and many more. This is the only example of this poster we have ever seen. A vivid celebration of mid-century Italian track cycling, this original 1953 lithographic poster advertises the Americana Internazionale (Madison race) for the Gran Premio Gaslo, held at Milan’s legendary Velodromo Maspes-Vigorelli. The design explodes with motion and national color, using a bold red, white, and blue palette with sweeping American flag motifs and dynamic typography. The poster lists a who ’s-who of postwar cycling royalty: Fausto Coppi, Hugo Koblet, Gino Bartali, Fiorenzo Magni, Renato Minali, and Rik Van Buren, among others. The inclusion of world champion Plattner and Italian sprint star Antonio Maspe further underscores the caliber of the event. The Vigorelli was Italy’s most famous velodrome, host to countless international track meetings and hour-record attempts throughout the 1940s and 1950s. This poster captures that golden period—when the sport’s greatest champions regularly traded their road bikes for the banked boards of Milan.

Gaslo poster stands as an outstanding example of Italian graphic design from the 1950s and a rare surviving artifact from one of cycling’s most iconic venues.

Spring Classic. Brooklyn Team Jersey. Perfection. De Vlaeminck raced as a professional for 16 seasons, from 1969 to 1984, and was an absolute beast during the 1970s. Mention the name Roger De Vlaeminck, and the race that first comes to mind is Paris-Roubaix. He won it a record four times. He also hit the victory punch card at all the monuments, one of only three riders to do so. The others were Eddy Merckx and Rik Van Looy. It must be something in the Belgian water. Often overlooked in the American press is the fact that he won stages in all three grand tours, including 22 at the Giro d’Italia, which he raced nine times. And he just so happened to win the overall at Tirreno-Adriatico six years in a row. The fact that he was also the world cyclo-cross champion in 1975 sheds light on bike-handling skills that come in handy on those springtime cobblestones covered in mud and moss. Photo by Tonny Strouken For over 30 years, Tonny was one of the top cycling photographers in the business. His photos have been published in magazines, books, and newspapers worldwide. We are committed to making it our mission to ensure that cycling fans outside of Europe learn more about Tonny. His style harkens back to the 1920s and is updated to reflect the shooting capabilities of contemporary cameras. He was a master at capturing crucial moments in race history. He was among the few cycling photographers who captured the rider’s soul. We have seen a fair amount of Tonny’s work, and it is breathtaking. Roger De Vlaeminck and Tonny Strouken have personally signed each lithograph, which is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from The Horton Collection. Printed by AMP in Dublin, CA, on 140-pound Mohawk paper with beautiful deboss/emboss detailing. The print features a debossed bevel edge and an embossed Horton Collection Logo. The debossed and embossed print has a beautiful finished look; it is ready to go straight into a frame. No mats are needed.

- [1990 World Championships, Official Race Poster, Featuring Greg Lemond, Sean Kelly & Dimitri Konyshev](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1990-world-championships-official-race-poster-featuring-greg-lemond-sean-kelly-dimitri-konyshev/) - 1990 World Cycling Championships - Championnats du Monde de Cyclisme 1990 Race Winner, Rudy Dhaenens This striking poster promotes the 1990 UCI Road World Championships, the first time the event was held in Japan. The road races took place in Utsunomiya from August 29 to September 2, and the track events were held in Maebashi from August 20 to 26. The featured image, however, is not from 1990, but rather from the 1989 World Championships in Chambéry, France—a legendary sprint finish in which Greg LeMond (USA) claimed victory over Dimitri Konyshev (USSR) and Sean Kelly (Ireland). LeMond’s win, following his Tour de France triumph that same summer, capped one of the most celebrated comeback seasons in cycling history after his near-fatal hunting accident in 1987. The 1990 World Championships were historic as the first professional road World Championships held in Asia. The men’s professional road race was won by Rudy Dhaenens of Belgium, with Dirk De Wolf (Belgium) second and Gianni Bugno (Italy) sprinting to third from a reduced front group. LeMond finished fourth, narrowly missing the podium for a second straight year. The poster’s clean layout, Japanese typography, and dynamic photo of the 1989 finish symbolize the global expansion of the sport, bridging past glory with a milestone event in the history of international cycling. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters so they can be displayed or framed without compromising value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction.

The 2011 UCI Road World Championships were held in Copenhagen, Denmark, from September 19 to 25, 2011. This marked the first time since 1956 that Denmark hosted the event. The championships featured ten events across elite, under-23, and junior categories, with races taking place in Copenhagen and the surrounding Rudersdal area. The courses were designed to favor sprinters, leading to several thrilling finishes.

- [Lucien Van Impe, Signed Custom Solnolor - TV Jersey c. 1970/71 - (Rare)](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/lucien-van-impe-signed-custom-time-trial-criterium-jersey-1972-73/) - An exceptionally rare Sonolor professional team jersey signed by & custom-made for Belgian climbing specialist Lucien Van Impe during the early seasons of his pro career. Unlike the standard wool Sonolor–Lejeune team kit, this jersey features the short-lived “SONOLOR / TV” chest design, c. 1970–71, with the sponsor’s television logo beneath the lettering. This is the so-called “silk” variant — not genuine silk, but a lustrous synthetic blend (nylon/acetate) woven to shine under lights. These jerseys were produced in small numbers for criteriums, time trials, or occasional track events, where reduced weight and a more aerodynamic fit were advantageous. The fabric has a sleek, satin-like appearance markedly different from the coarser knit wool jerseys issued for road racing. Likely used at a time trial or kermesse. As an original piece tied to one of cycling’s legendary climbers and the 1976 Tour de France champion, this jersey represents both a unique sponsor variant and an unusual material issue. Collectors prize these “silk” jerseys for their scarcity, aesthetic appeal, and their direct connection to criterium and track racing culture of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Lucien Van Impe, born on 20 October 1946 in Mere, Belgium, was a legendary climber who dominated the Tour de France throughout the 1970s and early 1980s. His career highlights include winning the overall Tour in 1976 and claiming the prestigious polka-dot mountains classification six times (1971, 1972, 1975, 1977, 1981, 1983), tying the record of Federico Bahamontes. Van Impe also recorded nine individual stage victories at the Tour, showcasing his versatility and endurance. Beyond France, he excelled in the Giro d’Italia, earning back-to-back mountains jerseys in 1982 and 1983, as well as a stage win in 1983. In 1983, he capped off a remarkable career by winning the Belgian national road race championship—a rare feat for a mountain specialist. Over nearly two decades, Van Impe started 15 Tours de France and impressively finished all of them, tied for the record at the time. Size: 3 Chest: 33 inches / 84 cm (16 ½ inches / 42 cm measured armpit to armpit) Length: 29 in / 73.5 cm Maker: N/A Each jersey is one of a kind.

Fausto was the dominant cyclist in the Peloton after the Second World War. His many victories earned him the title Il Campionissimo (“Champion of Champions”). He was an all-around racing cyclist, excelling in both climbing and time trialing, and was also a skilled sprinter. He won the Giro d’Italia five times (1940, 1947, 1949, 1952, 1953), the Tour de France twice (1949 and 1952), and the World Championship in 1953. Other notable results include winning the Giro di Lombardia five times, Milan–San Remo three times, as well as victories at Paris–Roubaix and La Flèche Wallonne, and setting the hour record (45.798 km) in 1942.

- [Peloton Rider,  Salza  c.1970](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/peloton-rider-salza-c-1970-49/) - Original Vintage Diecast Metal Peloton Rider These little beauties are a fantastic addition to any cycling collection. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on. Maker: Salza Diecast Metal Size: 2 " tall x 2 1/8" long (5 x 5.5 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

He represented Luxembourg at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, finishing 96th in the men's road race. Between 1966 and 1971, he secured the national road race title an impressive six consecutive times. On the international stage, Schütz won a stage in the 1966 Tour de France (stage 18, Chamonix), becoming the last Luxembourger to claim a Tour de France stage win until 2006.

We acquired this jersey directly from Walter in the late 1990s. Despite his nickname, he was one of the kindest people we ever met in cycling. Whenever we found ourselves at the same race, Walter never failed to seek us out for a greeting. Though we shared little common language beyond a simple “hello,” he always took a moment to show genuine kindness. That generosity of spirit is the legacy he leaves with us. Sadly, Walter Godefroot passed away on September 1, 2025. He was truly one of the greats. This jersey is a beauty, featuring wonderful chain stitching and logo embroidery on the front, back, and sleeves. Walter Godefroot, fondly known as “The Bulldog of Flanders,” raced as a professional from 1965 to 1979 and managed Team Telecom and later the Astana Team from 1991 to 2007.

The 2002 Points victory would be the first of three at the Vuelta (2002, 2003 & 2004). During his career, Zabel won a record nine Points Classifications in Grand Tours: 3 at the Vuelta and 6 at the Tour de France. Inspired by the success of the Tour de France and Giro d’Italia, and the boost to the circulation of the sponsoring newspapers, Juan Pujol of the daily Informaciones paper worked with cyclist Celemte López Doringa to start a Grand Tour of Spain in 1935 to increase the circulation of his paper. The first edition of the Vuelta covered 3,431 km over 14 stages. The race was initially held in the spring but in 1995 was moved to September. While the route changes each year, the format of the race stays the same, with the appearance of at least two time trials, the passage through the mountain chain of the Pyrenees, and the finish in the Spanish capital Madrid. The modern editions of the Vuelta a España consist of 21 day-long segments (stages) over a 23-day period that includes 2 rest days.

Going into the 1977 Tour, Bernard Thevenet, winner of the 1975 Tour, was the favorite to win since the route was well-suited to his skills. Dietrich Thurau led the Tour through Stage 15a when Thevenet took the lead. Lucien Van Impe, the previous year's winner, wanted to repeat his victory, and going into Stage 16, Van Impe, along with Eddy Merckx and Joop Zoetemelk, were all within about 1 minute of Bernard Thévenet. Merckx fell off the back near the end of the Tour, Zoetemelk was penalized ten minutes, and Van Impe had his bike damaged when he was hit by a motorist on Alpe d'Huez, where Kuiper won the stage but was unable to break Thévenet, who won the Tour with the smallest margin since the 1968 Tour de France. After a competitive and thrilling race, Thevenet finished in Paris, only 48 seconds ahead of Hennie Kuiper and 3′ 32″ over third-place finisher Lucien Van Impe. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshield. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, most plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible.

Freddy Maertens dominated the 1977 Vuelta a España, winning 13 stages, leading from the prologue to the finish in Madrid, and taking both the overall and points titles. This lovely jersey features Maertens' Team Velda-Latina Assicurazioni-Flandria, along with the race organizer, the Spanish newspaper “El Correo Español”, and race sponsor “Butano”, a Spanish gas company. Maertens is widely regarded as one of the greatest sprinters in the history of road cycling. He won the World Road Race Championships in 1976 and 1981, claimed 35 Grand Tour stage victories across the Tour de France, the Giro d’Italia, and the Vuelta a España, and took the Tour’s green jersey three times. His finest Grand Tour came at the 1977 Vuelta, where he led from the prologue to Madrid, won a record 13 stages, and secured both the overall and points classifications. Add in major one-day wins like Gent–Wevelgem and Amstel Gold, and you have a rider whose résumé places him among the sport’s all-time elites. The Vuelta’s leader’s jersey has changed color several times since 1935. The inaugural leader wore orange from 1935 to 1936; it was white in 1941, orange again in 1942, then white from 1945 to 1950. When the race returned in 1955 under El Correo’s organization, the leader’s jersey became yellow and remained so for over 40 years, with a one-year return to orange in 1977. The color then shifted to a darker, golden shade around 1998 and was worn through the 2009 edition, before changing to the current red in 2010.

He grabbed the rainbow jersey at the 1977 World Championships in San Cristóbal, outsprinting Dietrich Thurau, and he had already been world champion on the track in the individual pursuit in 1976. Moser owned Paris–Roubaix in its cobbled heyday, taking three in a row from 1978 to 1980, a streak matched in the modern era by Mathieu van der Poel’s 2023 to 2025 run. His 1984 was wild: he broke the Hour Record twice in Mexico City, first with 50.808 km, then with 51.151 km four days later, and he won Milan–San Remo. Earlier, in his lone Tour de France in 1975, he won the prologue and the first-ever young rider classification.

- [Tour de France Medal - The Medal of Recognition of the Tour de France - Artist, Raymond Joly - RARE](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/medaille-du-tour-la-medaille-de-la-reconnaissance-du-tour-de-france/) - Médaille du Tour / La Medaille de la Reconnaissance du Tour de France Medal of the Tour / The Medal of Recognition of the Tour de France This stunning medal is the Tour de France Medal, also known as The Medal of Recognition of the Tour de France (Médaille du Tour / La Médaille de la Reconnaissance du Tour de France), is a prestigious honor akin to a lifetime achievement award bestowed annually by the Director of the Tour de France. On occasion, this medal is awarded without the engraving of the recipients name, as is the case with this example. There appears absolutely no rhyme or reason when or why this occurs. In over 30 years of collecting we have seen only six examples, engraved or not, come to the market. This distinguished award was established under the stewardship of Tour Director Jacques Goddet. It is awarded to individuals and entities who have significantly contributed to the race's success over a minimum of 21 years. The Tour de France Medal is far rarer than the annual medals presented to Tour participants. Serving from 1936 to 1986, Mr. Goddet remains the longest-tenured Tour Director in the race's illustrious history. These medals hold a significant place in the annals of Tour de France history. The beautifully detailed artwork on the obverse showcases the Yellow Jersey at the center, surrounded by laurel branches symbolizing triumph. The Jersey is positioned on a map of France, with Tour Riders highlighting the border. The "Tour de France Cycliste" inscription is at the top, while "l'Equipe - Le Parisien Libere" is at the bottom. The reverse has a wonderfully detailed image depicting Tour Riders heading into an epic day of riding in the high mountains. Size: 3 1/8 inches (8 cm) Material: Bronze Weight: 225 grams This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.
- [Arnaldo Pambianco on the Gavia Pass, 1960 Giro d'Italia](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/arnaldo-pambianco-on-the-gavia-pass-1960-giro-ditalia/) - Arnaldo Pambianco Giro d'Italia, 1960 Pambianco is about to shove that newspaper under his jersey to block the wind on his descent into Bormio. The Gavia was the last major climb of the 1960 Giro d’Italia, and this stage was the last shot the contenders had to unseat the maglia rosa, Jacques Anquetil. Anquetil, however, would not be denied, as the 3:41 he lost on the stage was not enough to knock him from the lead. For his effort, Pambianco finished seventh overall. He exacted his revenge the following year, beating second-place Anquetil by 3:45 to become the Giro’s 1961 Champion. Each image in the Vintage Print Series has been reproduced from an original photographic print or negative in The Horton Collection archives.

The diagonal stripe featuring the Italian colors are panels that have been stitched into the jersey body. Like Henry Ford, I will sell you a bike in any color you like... As long as it's blue. - Alfredo Gios Gios was first established in 1948 by Tolmino Gios, a professional cyclist in the late 1930s and a member of the Italian National Team for the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin. Tolmino built the first Gios bikes in a small workshop in Torino, Italy. In 1958, Tolmino's son Alfredo began working for the family company. In its early days, Gios produced city bikes. The company expanded its designs in the early 1970s, catching the attention of Giorgio Perfetti, the multi-millionaire owner of the chewing gum company Brooklyn. In 1972, Brooklyn decided to create and sponsor a new professional cycling team, with Gios bikes as their ride of choice. The new Brooklyn team, led by two of the biggest stars of the era, Roger De Vlaeminck and Patrick Sercu, quickly became a major force in professional cycling. From 1973 to 1977, the Brooklyn team amassed an enviable list of results. During the 1980s and 1990s, riders such as Didi Thurau, Fons De Wolf, Stephen Roche, and Ivan Quaranta rode "the blue bikes" to victory in many of the Classics. All jerseys are sold unframed.

- [1999 Tour de France, Official Race Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1999-tour-de-france-official-race-poster/) - This poster for the 1999 Tour de France encapsulates multiple elements of the Tour’s identity through a layered and symbolic design. It employs a 1950s-inspired aesthetic, featuring the silhouette of a cyclist racing past a backdrop of the iconic yellow, polka dot, and green jerseys, representing the Overall, Mountains, and Points classifications, respectively. Notably absent is the white jersey, which, while the Young Rider classification was introduced in 1975, was not physically awarded between 1989 and 1999. The white jersey would return in 2000 and has remained a fixture in the race ever since. Beneath the cyclist, a series of rivets and a spherical form—likely symbolizing the Earth—highlight the Tour’s global significance. Riders from around the world travel to France, often by plane, to compete in cycling’s most prestigious event. This theme is reinforced by the inclusion of a yellow postal label with two upward-pointing red arrows—an international shipping symbol for “This Side Up.” The implication is clear: these athletes are precious cargo, arriving upright and race-ready, heads up, feet down, prepared for battle. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on very thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters so they can be displayed or framed without compromising value. This poster is an original first printing, not a reproduction. Year: 1999 Artist: Peter Klassen Size: 60 x 80 cm ( 23 ½ x 31 ½ inches) - Linen Backed Archival Mounting Posters are sold unframed.

- [1996 Tour de France Promotional Poster Featuring Race Winner Bjarne Riis](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1996-tour-de-france-promotional-poster-featuring-race-winner-bjarne-riis/) - This original 1996 Tour de France promotional poster celebrates Bjarne Riis’s overall victory and was issued by Campagnolo, the renowned Italian cycling component manufacturer. This poster features a powerful image of Riis in the Maillot Jaune riding solo in front of a stylized, color-shifted support car background, creating a striking and intense visual effect. The bold headline reads “BJARNE RIIS WINS 1996 TOUR DE FRANCE,” with Campagnolo’s branding below and the tagline: “You don’t win a Tour by chance: especially not 26 times in 30 years!”—a reference to the company’s long legacy of Tour-winning components. Riis’s 1996 victory, riding for Team Telekom, marked the first time a Danish rider won the Tour de France. He took control of the race in the Alps, particularly with his dominant performance on Stage 16 to Hautacam, and held off a strong challenge from teammate Jan Ullrich, who finished second overall. Richard Virenque (France) placed third. General Classification (Yellow Jersey): Bjarne Riis (Denmark) Points Classification: Erik Zabel (Germany) Mountains Classification: Richard Virenque (France) Best Young Rider: Jan Ullrich (Germany) In 2007, Riis publicly admitted to using EPO and other banned substances during his career, including during the 1996 Tour. However, unlike Lance Armstrong, his name was not removed from the official Tour de France winners' list, and the ASO (Tour organizers) later stated they “no longer considered him the official winner,” although he remains listed in the records.

- [1970s Paris-Nice, Race Used Car Plaque](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1970s-paris-nice-technique-vehicle-car-plaque/) - One of the iconic races of cycling, Paris-Nice, has been held annually since 1933. Raced over eight days, the race usually starts with a prologue in the Paris region and ends with a final stage either in Nice or on the Col d’Èze overlooking the city. The event is nicknamed The Race to the Sun, as it runs in the first half of March, typically starting in cold and wintry conditions in the French capital before reaching the spring sunshine on the Côte d’Azur. In the racing of today, the race organizers, cars, team vehicles, and other participants in the official race caravan have disposable stickers that are affixed to the windshield. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques that were attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, the majority of the plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible.

- [1975 Tour de France, Race Used Car Plaque, Winner Bernard Thevenet](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1975-tour-de-france-race-used-car-plaque-winner-bernard-thevenet-2/) - 1975 Tour de France, Race Winner Bernard Thevenet A Legendary Year in Tour History Eddy Merckx entered the 1975 Tour de France as the undisputed favorite. Having triumphed in all five of his previous Tour participations, Merckx started the 1975 season in stellar form, securing victories in Milan-San Remo, Tour of Flanders, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège. A win on this Tour would have elevated him to the unprecedented achievement of six Tour de France victories. However, the prospect of Merckx surpassing French cycling legend Jacques Anquetil's five-win record stirred resentment among French cycling enthusiasts. Tensions boiled over during Stage 14's ascent of the Puy de Dôme when a disgruntled spectator punched Merckx, who was in yellow. Following a rest day, the race recommenced with Stage 15, a challenging mountain stage from Nice to Pra Loup. Visibly suffering, Merckx faltered on the climb to Pra Loup, allowing Bernard Thévenet to attack 2 km from the finish and win the stage by 2 minutes. Thévenet seized the stage victory and, ultimately, the yellow jersey in Paris. Thévenet's dominance was evident as he finished 2 minutes and 47 seconds ahead of Merckx and an impressive 5 minutes and 7 seconds ahead of the third-place finisher, Lucien Van Impe. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshields. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of all race vehicles. As with most things ephemeral, the majority of the plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible.

Media attention focused on three key contenders: Evgeni Berzin, Abraham Olano, and Pavel Tonkov. Additionally, Swiss rider Pascal Richard was considered a strong candidate for a high placement in the general classification due to the mountainous terrain in the final week. The prestigious maglia rosa changed hands multiple times throughout the race, with five different riders wearing the leader’s jersey before Pavel Tonkov ultimately seized control. Tonkov first claimed the pink jersey after his victory in Stage 13 and held it for the remainder of the race, except for a brief loss to Olano at the end of Stage 20 by a margin of just 46 hundredths of a second. However, he reclaimed it the very next day and secured overall victory. Italian rider Enrico Zaina finished second, while Spain’s Abraham Olano completed the podium in third. In the other classifications, Mariano Piccoli of Brescialat dominated the mountains classification, while Fabrizio Guidi of Scrigno–Gaerne triumphed in both the points and intergiro classifications.

- [Champions Prefer Campagnolo - Eddy Merckx, Walter Villa & Clay Regazzoni, c. 1975](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/champions-prefer-campagnolo-eddy-merckx-walter-villa-clay-regazzoni-c-1975/) - Champions Prefer Campagnolo Eddy Merckx, Walter Villa, Clay Regazzoni For anyone who loved bike racing in the 1970s and 1980s, Campagnolo was king. Everything about Campy exuded class, elegance, and victory. With minimal competition at the time, Campy ruled the roads. The halcyon days of French components were clearly in the rearview mirror, and Japanese companies SunTour and Shimano were not yet entrenched on the racing side of the cycling ledger. Simply stated, it was a glorious time to be a fan of all things Italian. With 525 career victories to his name, Eddy Merckx is the most successful rider in cycling history. Highlights of his storied career include winning eleven Grand Tours, all five Monument races, three professional road World Championships, the Hour Record, every major one-day race (except Paris-Tours), and many track racing victories. Walter Villa was an Italian Grand Prix motorcycle racer who achieved four world championships in the 1970s, securing three consecutive 250cc titles from 1974 to 1976 and the 350cc championship in 1976. He began his racing career at the age of 13. He later joined Harley-Davidson's racing team, where he won 24 Grand Prix races and 36 podiums, becoming one of Italy's most successful motorcycle racers. After retiring in 1980, Villa remained active in historic motorsport events and as a trainer until his death in 2002. Clay Regazzoni was a Swiss Formula 1 driver who competed for 11 seasons, achieving five Grand Prix victories. He made an impressive debut by winning the 1970 Italian Grand Prix at Monza, driving for Ferrari. In 1974, he finished as the runner-up in the World Drivers' Championship with Ferrari, narrowly missing the title. Regazzoni later joined Williams, where he secured the team's first-ever Grand Prix win at the 1979 British Grand Prix. His career was tragically cut short in 1980 due to a paralyzing accident, but he continued to race in rally and endurance events using hand-controlled vehicles.

Each helmet is banded by the rainbow stripes that only the World Champion may wear. Look away from the faces and closer towards the handlebars, and you’ll see the Heineken logo subtly and politely photobombing the bottom edge. Local brewery pride? Absolutely, but also a reminder that cycling in the Netherlands is practically a national beverage. At the bottom of the poster, a bright blue strip rattles off dates and places: Valkenburg first, and Amsterdam second. It reads less like a schedule and more like a train timetable urging you to hop aboard: two cities, rainbow jerseys, and enough flat terrain to make even a pure climber feel cocky. This vibrant official poster promotes the 1979 UCI Road World Championships (Wielrennen WK 79), hosted in the Netherlands at two locations: Valkenburg, which held the amateur and junior events from August 22–26, and Amsterdam, which hosted the Elite Men’s and Women’s Road Races from August 28 to September 2.

His record stood unmatched for 35 years, until Louison Bobet equaled the feat in 1955. Thys also claimed 13 stage wins during his career, a remarkable tally considering that most Tours of his era featured only 15 stages in total. His story is one of both triumph and lost opportunity: after winning back-to-back Tours just before the outbreak of World War I, the race was suspended for four years. When it returned in 1919, Thys reclaimed his dominance with another victory in 1920. The image shows Thys posed confidently on a bicycle, wearing a distinctive black-and-white jersey. The poster was used to promote Cycles Philippe Thys, a line of bicycles bearing his name, and highlights their "Type Tour de France" model.

- [1948 World Championships, Official Race Poster, Race Winner - Briek Schotte](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1948-world-championships-official-race-poster-race-winner-briek-schotte/) - 1948 Track & Road World Championships - Wereld-Kampionenschappen Amsterdam & Valkenburg This poster from the 1948 Road World Championships features a cyclist riding atop a globe, symbolizing the international reach and significance of the race it promotes. An interesting stylistic choice: while most would make the oceans blue and the land a different color, such as green, the artist here decided to make the land blue and the oceans white. It’s a detail one may not pick up on at first, instead probably registering it as having weirdly drawn continents. The dates split neatly: road races in hilly Valkenburg on 21-22 August, track events in Amsterdam’s Olympisch Stadion 23-29 August. Post-war Europe was still rationing butter, yet the Dutch pulled off a two-city world championship as if staging was no big deal. Note the initials “U.C.I.” and “N.W.U.” stacked like Scrabble tiles on the right. International cycling meets the Dutch cycling union. The Men’s Professional Road Race took place on 22 August 1948 around the Cauberg circuit in Valkenburg. The podium finishers were: 🥇 Briek Schotte (Belgium) – finished in 7 h 30′ 42″ 🥈 Apo Lazaridès (France) – + 1″ behind 🥉 Lucien Teisseire (France) – + 3′ 41″ behind This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

- [1966 World Track Championships, Official Race Poster](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1966-world-track-championships-official-race-poster/) - Championnats du Monde cyclistes Bahn-Rad-Weltmeisterschaft der Frauen, Amateure und Berufsfahrer 1966 Track World Cycling Championships for Women, Amateurs and Professionals This poster presents a striking and unforgettable image. While the presence of motorcycles in bike racing—particularly in motor-paced track events—is not unusual, the way they are depicted here is anything but ordinary. The design deliberately withholds color from the subjects, reserving it only for the vivid blue headline text and the UCI’s signature rainbow stripes. The rest of the composition is rendered in stark, stylized black and white. The pacers on their motorcycles are sharp and authoritative—symbols of power and control. Their bold jersey numbers are clearly visible, their faces defined, and their overall presence grounded and solid. In contrast, the cyclists behind them seem almost ghostlike, as if the speed and force of the race is pulling them apart. Their features are obscured, their jerseys indistinct, and their outlines fading into the chaos of motion. The background—a blur of spectators, seating, and guardrails—is reduced to a smudge, emphasizing the sheer velocity at play. Amid the swirl of energy, the motorcycle riders remain calm and composed, a steady force guiding the whirlwind behind them. Hovering in the corner is a small globe wrapped in rainbow stripes, stamped with “UCI” alongside “BDR” (Bund Deutscher Radfahrer). Translation: international sanction meets German precision—please have your lap times ready. In the lower right, the Martini roundel lounges confidently, a reminder that nothing says “elite athleticism” quite like an Italian vermouth brand backing a week of anaerobic suffering. Why Frankfurt? The velodrome could hold thousands, and post-war West Germany was eager to host major events as a symbol of national recovery and modernity. Women, amateurs, and professionals all raced, though the poster’s minimalist design leaves the competitors to your imagination. And if the dates—“29.8. - 4.9.66”—give you pause, blame the European day-month format. That same system once convinced a jet-lagged American sprinter he’d arrived a day late. He hadn’t—but the moment of panic may have shaved a tenth off his flying lap. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

Designed in a dynamic black-and-white style, it features a pack of riders in motion, their forms abstracted to emphasize speed and movement. The only splashes of color are the bright blue titles and the iconic rainbow stripes of the World Champion, along with the Martini International Club sponsor logo in the lower right corner. The poster advertises the full slate of championship events: the 100 km amateur team time trial in Cologne on August 25, followed by the individual amateur, women’s, and professional men’s races at the Nürburgring on August 27–28. The 1966 championships crowned some of the most iconic riders of the era: Rudi Altig of West Germany claimed victory in the men’s professional road race in front of a home crowd, defeating Jacques Anquetil (France) and Raymond Poulidor (France). Yvonne Reynders of Belgium won the women’s road race, while the amateur men's title went to Evert Grasmann of the Netherlands. This poster has been archivally and professionally linen-backed.

Ernest competed in seven editions of the Tour de France between 1908 and 1922, completing six, winning two stages (1909 and 1910), and placing 6th overall in 1909.

Zimmerman's face is focused, and his hair is flying in the wind as he powers around the track, his profile highlighted against the green track infield and the cheering crowds in the background. Arthur Augustus Zimmerman "The Flying Yankee", affectionately known as "Zimmy," was a pioneering American cyclist whose career spanned the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born on June 11, 1869, in Camden, New Jersey, Zimmerman became one of the most dominant sprint riders of his era. He won over 1,000 races, including the first-ever World Sprint Championship held in Chicago in 1893, and was a three-time U.S. national champion from 1890 to 1892. Zimmerman was renowned for his exceptional acceleration and ability to pedal unusually fast, achieving remarkable feats such as completing a 100-meter flying start in just 5.4 seconds, averaging 66.6 km/h. His prowess on the track earned him the nickname "The Jersey Skeeter." In 1894, he turned professional and continued to dominate, winning the sprint championship of France and setting numerous records. Zimmerman retired from racing in 1905 and passed away on October 22, 1936, in Atlanta, Georgia.

- [c.1960 Tour de France - SPAR Musette Bag](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/c-1960-tour-de-france-spar-musette-bag-5/) - Long before each team had its own branded musettes, the Tour organization provided them to teams. 50+ year-old musettes like this one are getting progressively tougher to come by with each passing year. The Musette: A Simple Cloth Bag and Icon of Cycling We see riders wrapped in spare tubes with goggles firmly in place, carrying the unmistakable fabric food bag from bicycle racing's earliest photographs. This simple but vital musette bag takes its name from the nose bag often seen hanging around horses' necks. Getting food and water to riders has always been a tricky but crucial part of racing. In the early days, to supplement what a rider could carry in a musette, riders often raided bars and cafes, leaving bills for race organizers to settle later. Formal feed zones were introduced to racing in 1919, but riders still had to stop to take on provisions from large tables. By the 1950s, the random cafes and tables of food began to be replaced by team staff on the side of the road handing off the musettes to riders who did not need to stop and risk losing valuable time. As cycling technology advances, with innovations like radios and wireless shifting, the proven and straightforward musette bag remains a vital method to get food and drinks to riders in the peloton. In the early days, musettes were not available for fans to purchase. They were highly prized and collected, especially when a favorite brand or race was featured. Size: 11.5 x 9.5 inches (29 x 24 cm) This item is one of a kind; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

The artist has used the distinct colors of the revered rainbow jersey to beautifully illustrate the riders of the peloton. The rainbow jersey of the World Champion is a coveted prize among cyclists. Unlike a trophy that is stashed on a shelf, the rainbow jersey is a trophy to be worn by the World Champion for an entire season. At the end of the champion's year-long reign, they wear the rainbow stripes on the collar and sleeves of their jersey for the rest of their careers. The first World Championships were held in 1921 in Copenhagen, Denmark. At the 1952 race held in Luxembourg, there were only two events, the Men's Professional and Men's Amateur Road races.

- [Sean Kelly, Race Worn, 1982 Tour de France Green Jersey (acquired directly from Sean)](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/sean-kelly-race-worn-1982-tour-de-france-green-jersey/) - "On his best form there is nothing you can do against Kelly: he climbs better than the best climbers and sprints better than the best sprinters." —Greg LeMond offered this assessment of Sean Kelly in 1986. Brett was fortunate to acquire this beautiful 1982 Tour de France Green Jersey directly from Sean. At the time, Sean shared how uncomfortable he found the sponsor logo plaques affixed to the jerseys and how much he disliked them. As the race wore on, he would often tear them off. Hence, the obviously missing sponsor plaques on both the front and back. Sean Kelly was one of the most successful riders of the 1980s and is widely regarded as one of the greatest Classics specialists in the sport's history. Turning professional in 1977, Kelly amassed 193 career victories before retiring in 1994. In the Tour de France, he won the points classification (known as the green jersey) four times—in 1982, 1983, 1985, and 1989—becoming the first rider to achieve this feat. He also finished fourth overall in the 1985 Tour and claimed five stage wins during his career. In the Vuelta a España, Kelly won the overall title in 1988, along with 16 stage wins and four points classification victories, matching his total from the Tour de France.

The companion publication, Miroir-Sprint, came out weekly and reported on news of various sports from 1946 to 1971.

By the start of the 1971 Tour, he had already claimed 13 victories in the early-season racing, confirming his status as the strongest rider in the peloton. His fiercest rival was Luis Ocaña, but Ocaña suffered a devastating crash on a wet descent during Stage 14 in the Massif Central and was forced to abandon the race. With Ocaña out, Merckx secured overall victory, finishing 9 minutes and 51 seconds ahead of Joop Zoetemelk and 11 minutes and 6 seconds ahead of third-place Lucien Van Impe. Merckx also claimed the Points and Combination classifications, while Van Impe took the Mountains jersey, and Pieter Nassen won the Sprints classification. In today's racing, the race organizers' cars, team vehicles, and other participants in the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to their windshields. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, most plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible. Made of Metal Large Plaque Size: 9 ¾ x 5 inches (25 x 12.5 cm) Small Number Plaque Size: 4 x 5 inches (10 x 12.5 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

- [7-Eleven, 1988 Jeff Pierce Jersey, Name in Collar, Acquired Directly from Jeff Pierce](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/7-eleven-1988-jeff-pierce-jersey-name-in-collar/) - This wonderful 1988 Jeff Pierce 7-Eleven Team jersey has his name written in the collar. It has long sleeves, a full zipper, and three back pockets. We acquired this jersey directly from Jeff Pierce about 20 years ago. For four seasons, 1987-1990, US rider Jeff Pierce was an integral part of the 7-Eleven cycling team. Without question, his most notable victory was at the final stage in Paris at the 1987 Tour de France. It was a win that helped cement 7-Eleven’s reputation as a top-shelf team. Pierce was a force in domestic cycling, and he enjoyed a solid racing career that extended beyond being the third American to win a stage at the Tour. His multiple stage wins at the Coors Classic and overall victory at Nevada City, Bisbee, and the Tour of Texas were key to leaving his mark on professional cycling. Authentic 7-Eleven team jerseys have become quite scarce. A decade or two ago, we were fortunate to acquire the Pierce team clothing we have directly from Jeff. While we are certainly keeping a few for our permanent collection, we know others would love to have a bit of the incredible legacy of the 7-Eleven Cycling Team. Enjoy a video clip from Jeff’s victory in Paris, along with a link to his CyclingNews interview describing that fateful day, below in the description section. The 7-Eleven Team, later the Motorola Cycling Team was founded in 1981 by Jim Ochowicz, a former US Olympic Cyclist. The team lasted 16 years, sponsored by 7-Eleven from 1981 to 1990 and Motorola from 1991 to 1996. While it was not the first professional cycling team in the US, 7-Eleven was responsible for an overall increase in bike racing interest in the US. The team claimed a Grand Tour win when Andrew Hampsten won the general classification as well as the mountains classification at the 1988 Giro d'Italia. Among its many victories, the team also claimed a handful of World Championship medals and US championships, Tour de Suisse & Tour of Romandie victories, along with Tour de France and Giro stage wins.

- [Floyd Landis Signed, 2006 Tour of California Jersey](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/floyd-landis-signed-2006-tour-of-california-jersey/) - Tour of California, Post Podium Awards Leaders Jersey, signed by race winner Floyd Landis The inaugural Tour of California in 2006 was an exciting event, thrilling American crowds as professional riders took to the roads of California. The race began with a prologue time trial on the hilly streets of San Francisco and wound its way south along the breathtaking coastline, culminating in a circuit race in Redondo Beach. Floyd Landis of the Phonak Team seized the race lead on Stage 3 and ultimately secured overall race victory, finishing just 34 seconds ahead of Bobby Julich after Stage 7. Landis was a versatile rider with exceptional skills in climbing, time-trialing, and descending. He turned professional in 1999 with the Mercury Cycling Team, joined the U.S. Postal Service team in 2002, and moved to the Phonak Hearing Systems team in 2005. At the 2006 Tour de France, Landis was accused of doping, subsequently suspended from professional cycling, and dismissed from his team. After serving a two-year ban, he returned to competition in early 2009 with the OUCH Pro Cycling Team, a U.S.-based domestic racing team. For years, he maintained his innocence and fought the allegations. However, on May 20, 2010, after nearly four years of denial, Landis admitted to doping. He also exposed widespread doping within professional cycling, implicating Lance Armstrong and several top riders from his former teams. Many regard him as the whistleblower who ultimately brought down Armstrong and the USPS Cycling Team All jerseys are sold unframed. Framed images are display ideas only.

Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines.

Following his Tour de France triumph in 1974, Merckx won the World Championships, securing his status as the first cyclist to achieve the illustrious Triple Crown of Cycling.

This little vehicle is just what you need. The Fonderie Roger made this Savons le Chat vehicle, which has great lines and the original plastic windows. Founded in 1930 by Henri Roger in Paris, Fonderie Roger began producing toy cyclists in the 1950s.

This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular. By the mid-1960s, the factory relocated to Egreville, France, where it produced thousands of cyclists annually, primarily for markets in France, Belgium, and Italy. Following Henri’s retirement in 1960, his son Pierre Roger took over the business. Under Pierre’s leadership, the company expanded its product line to include toy cars marketed under the PR label. Today, the Foundrie Roger continues the tradition of crafting die-cast metal cyclists with the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship.

- [1975 Tour de France, Race Used Car Plaque, Winner Bernard Thevenet](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1975-tour-de-france-race-used-car-plaque-winner-bernard-thevenet/) - 1975 Tour de France, Race Winner Bernard Thevenet A Legendary Year in Tour History Eddy Merckx entered the 1975 Tour de France as the undisputed favorite. Having triumphed in all five of his previous Tour participations, Merckx started the 1975 season in stellar form, securing victories in Milan-San Remo, Tour of Flanders, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège. A win on this Tour would have elevated him to the unprecedented achievement of six Tour de France victories. However, the prospect of Merckx surpassing French cycling legend Jacques Anquetil's five-win record stirred resentment among French cycling enthusiasts. Tensions boiled over during Stage 14's ascent of the Puy de Dôme when a disgruntled spectator punched Merckx, who was in yellow. Following a rest day, the race recommenced with Stage 15, a challenging mountain stage from Nice to Pra Loup. Visibly suffering, Merckx faltered on the climb to Pra Loup, allowing Bernard Thévenet to attack 2 km from the finish and win the stage by 2 minutes. Thévenet seized the stage victory and, ultimately, the yellow jersey in Paris. Thévenet's dominance was evident as he finished 2 minutes and 47 seconds ahead of Merckx and an impressive 5 minutes and 7 seconds ahead of the third-place finisher, Lucien Van Impe. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshields.

What started as a mistake has resulted in a rare and popular collectible variation. Founded in 1930 by Henri Roger in Paris, Fonderie Roger began producing toy cyclists in the 1950s. The early models, crafted from a zinc alloy called zamak, featured separate bases that often went missing, leaving the riders unable to stand upright. This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular.

Quiralu was a French toy company renowned for its high-quality products during the mid-20th century. The company was founded in 1932 by Émile Quirin, who also operated a family art foundry in Luxeuil-les-Bains, in the Haute-Saône department of France. Initially, Quiralu focused on manufacturing a variety of metal products, including household items and decorative objects. However, in the late 1930s, the company shifted its focus to producing metal toys. Quiralu quickly gained a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail in its toy designs. During the 1940s and 1950s, the company enjoyed significant success and became well-known for its miniature figures. These included cyclists, toy soldiers, cars, cowboys, athletes, and various characters from popular culture. Quiralu used a process known as zamak casting, involving the use of a zinc alloy to create detailed shapes by pouring molten metal into molds. In 1941, Émile's son-in-law, Hubert Desgranges, took over the business. Later, in 1948, Émile’s grandson, Bernard Desgranges, assumed leadership of the company. Sadly, the foundry closed in 1964.

To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle.

In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene.

What started as a mistake has resulted in a rare and popular collectible variation. Founded in 1930 by Henri Roger in Paris, Fonderie Roger began producing toy cyclists in the 1950s. The early models, crafted from a zinc alloy called zamak, featured separate bases that often went missing, leaving the riders unable to stand upright. This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular. By the mid-1960s, the factory relocated to Egreville, France, where it produced thousands of cyclists annually, primarily for markets in France, Belgium, and Italy. Following Henri's retirement in 1960, his son Pierre Roger took over the business. Under Pierre’s leadership, the company expanded its product line to include toy cars marketed under the PR label.

The company was founded in 1932 by Émile Quirin, who also operated a family art foundry in Luxeuil-les-Bains, in the Haute-Saône department of France. Initially, Quiralu focused on manufacturing a variety of metal products, including household items and decorative objects.

These quirky riders with the signature potato-shaped nose, known as the "Big Nose" or "Gros Nez" version, were originally the result of a poorly made mold. What started as a mistake has resulted in a rare and popular collectible variation. Founded in 1930 by Henri Roger in Paris, Fonderie Roger began producing toy cyclists in the 1950s. The early models, crafted from a zinc alloy called zamak, featured separate bases that often went missing, leaving the riders unable to stand upright. This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular. By the mid-1960s, the factory relocated to Egreville, France, where it produced thousands of cyclists annually, primarily for markets in France, Belgium, and Italy. Following Henri's retirement in 1960, his son Pierre Roger took over the business. Under Pierre’s leadership, the company expanded its product line to include toy cars marketed under the PR label. Today, the Foundrie Roger continues the tradition of crafting die-cast metal cyclists with the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship.

These began as hand-painted or printed signs on heavy metal sheets, bolted directly to the vehicles. Over time, they evolved into versions made of paper affixed to wood, durable board, or plastic. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, those formats gave way to windshield stickers, disposable one-race decals that quickly became the new standard. At the time, we knew there was no turning back. But we also saw something worth celebrating in the new format, and knew we had to find a way to preserve this cherished racing tradition. Suddenly, caravan signage, already fleeting by nature, became even more ephemeral. These markers have long made fantastic souvenirs, whether as a reminder of a race you witnessed in person or on TV, a tribute to a birth year, graduation, anniversary, or a legendary edition of a race. Above all, they make for striking, race-worn display pieces in any bike room, man cave, or she shed. We’re thrilled to offer a collection of these official race caravan plaques. Each of these unique modern markers has been carefully mounted by Brett, who teamed up with a local woodworker to affix them to custom-cut, 3/16” thick coated display panels. The scuffs, nicks, and bits of dirt? That’s part of the charm. Remember, these were race-used. These are difficult to find. When they’re gone, they’re gone. So if one speaks to you, grab it!

Over his career, he finished in the top 20 at the Tour six times and wore the yellow jersey for seven consecutive days. The Four Days of Dunkirk—Grand Prix des Hauts-de-France is a stage race held in the Hauts-de-France region. It takes place in May and covers approximately 1,100 km, winding through the roads of Hauts-de-France, making a nice transition from the Spring Classics to the summer Stage Races. Starting in Dunkirk, the riders traditionally pass through the mountains of Flanders, the Boulonnais mountains, the Artois hills, and Cap Blanc-Nez, depending on the edition. The relatively flat terrain favors sprinters.. The race was founded in 1955 by a team of cycling enthusiasts led by René Quillot. Despite its name, it now spans six stages over six days. The Dunkirk Grand Prix—Trophée Primerose was initially held over four days from 1955 to 1962. In 1963, it expanded to five days and later to six days. The number of stages fluctuated from four in the earliest editions to a peak of eight stages over six days in 1969. In today’s racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshields. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, the majority of the plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible. Made of Metal - hand painted on a thick metal plate. Size: 20 x 9 3/4 inches (51 x 25 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

- [1996 Four Days of Dunkerque, Race Used Car Plaque](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1996-four-days-of-dunkerque-race-used-car-plaque/) - Since the earliest days of racing, race organizer vehicles, team cars, and other members of the official race caravan have displayed plaques identifying their roles: officials, press, medical, advertising, team support, and more. These began as hand-painted or printed signs on heavy metal sheets, bolted directly to the vehicles. Over time, they evolved into versions made of paper affixed to wood, durable board, or plastic. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, those formats gave way to windshield stickers, disposable one-race decals that quickly became the new standard. At the time, we knew there was no turning back. But we also saw something worth celebrating in the new format, and knew we had to find a way to preserve this cherished racing tradition. Suddenly, caravan signage, already fleeting by nature, became even more ephemeral. These markers have long made fantastic souvenirs, whether as a reminder of a race you witnessed in person or on TV, a tribute to a birth year, graduation, anniversary, or a legendary edition of a race. Above all, they make for striking, race-worn display pieces in any bike room, man cave, or she shed. We’re thrilled to offer a collection of these official race caravan plaques, many sourced directly from Jim Ochowicz, founder of the legendary 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, and CCC Cycling Teams. Part of a larger trove of cycling memorabilia, each of these unique modern markers has been carefully mounted by Brett, who teamed up with a local woodworker to affix them to custom-cut, 3/16” thick coated display panels. The scuffs, nicks, and bits of dirt? That’s part of the charm. Remember, these were race-used. Each piece is an authentic artifact. Items from 7-Eleven, Motorola, BMC, or CCC include a team-specific Certificate of Authenticity. Others, gathered through our own travels and from additional teams, come with a similar COA. These are difficult to find. When they’re gone, they’re gone. So if one speaks to you, grab it! All race stickers are sold unframed. Framed images are display ideas only.

Held on the last weekend in March, it was initially open to only French riders and was considered as a sort of French national championship. In the early years, it was a one-day race starting in the Vallée de Chevreuse and finishing at the Parc des Princes Velodrome. Beginning in 1959, the race route started to change every year, and in 1963, the race moved to having 2 or 3 stages over two days of racing. The race was finally opened to non–French cyclists in 1979. Bernard Hinault is the only cyclist to win the race in both its forms. The race has been won by some of the most famous cycling names, including Andre Darrigade, Louison Bobet, Jacques Anquetil, Raymond Poulidor, Sean Kelly, Bernard Hinault, Miguel Indurain, Stephen Roche, Joop Zoetemelk, Laurent Fignon, and Chris Froome. Sadly, the last edition of the legendary race was held in 2016. Louis “Louison” Bobet was a French professional road racing cyclist. He was the first great French rider of the post-war period and the first to win the Tour de France in three successive years, from 1953 to 1955. His career included the National Road Championship (1950 and 1951), Milan–San Remo (1951), Giro di Lombardia (1951), Critérium International (1951 & 1952), Paris–Nice (1952), Grand Prix des Nations (1952), World Road Championship (1954), Tour of Flanders (1955), Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré (1955), Tour de Luxembourg (1955), Paris–Roubaix (1956) and Bordeaux–Paris (1959). In today's racing, the race organizers' cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshields. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, the majority of the plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible. Made of Paper over Masonite Size: 9 ⅝ x 9 ⅝ inches (24.5 x 24.5 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

Jan Janssen won the general classification, overtaking Herman Van Springel in the final time trial to win the Tour by only 38 seconds. Ferdinand Bracke filled out the final podium in third place. Franco Bitossi won the Points Classification, Aurelio Gonzalez the Mountains, Georges Vandenberghe the Sprints, and Roger Pingeon the Combativity. The 1968 Tour marked the first time the race would end at the Vélodrome de Vincennes, replacing the now-defunct Parc des Princes Velodrome, which served as the final stop from 1904 to 1967.

- [1975 Tour de France, Race Used Moto Plaque, Winner Bernard Thevenet](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1975-tour-de-france-race-used-moto-plaque-winner-bernard-thevenet/) - 1975 Tour de France, Race Winner Bernard Thevenet A Legendary Year in Tour History Eddy Merckx entered the 1975 Tour de France as the undisputed favorite. Having triumphed in all five of his previous Tour participations, Merckx started the 1975 season in stellar form, securing victories in Milan-San Remo, Tour of Flanders, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège. A win on this Tour would have elevated him to the unprecedented achievement of six Tour de France victories. However, the prospect of Merckx surpassing French cycling legend Jacques Anquetil's five-win record stirred resentment among French cycling enthusiasts. Tensions boiled over during Stage 14's ascent of the Puy de Dôme when a disgruntled spectator punched Merckx, who was in yellow. Following a rest day, the race recommenced with Stage 15, a challenging mountain stage from Nice to Pra Loup. Visibly suffering, Merckx faltered on the climb to Pra Loup, allowing Bernard Thévenet to attack 2 km from the finish and win the stage by 2 minutes. Thévenet seized the stage victory and, ultimately, the yellow jersey in Paris. Thévenet's dominance was evident as he finished 2 minutes and 47 seconds ahead of Merckx and an impressive 5 minutes and 7 seconds ahead of the third-place finisher, Lucien Van Impe. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshields. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of all race vehicles.

Over his career, he finished in the top 20 at the Tour six times and wore the yellow jersey for seven consecutive days. The Four Days of Dunkirk—Grand Prix des Hauts-de-France is a stage race held in the Hauts-de-France region. It takes place in May and covers approximately 1,100 km. It winds through the roads of Hauts-de-France, making a nice transition from the Spring Classics to the summer Stage Races. Starting in Dunkirk, the riders traditionally pass through the mountains of Flanders, the Boulonnais mountains, the Artois hills, and Cap Blanc-Nez, depending on the edition. The relatively flat terrain favors sprinters.. The race was founded in 1955 by a team of cycling enthusiasts led by René Quillot. Despite its name, the race now spans six stages over six days. The Dunkirk Grand Prix – Trophée Primerose was initially held over four days from 1955 to 1962. In 1963, it expanded to five days and later to six days. The number of stages has fluctuated from four stages in the earliest editions to a peak of eight stages over six days in 1969. In today’s racing, the race organizers' cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshields. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars.

Jacques Anquetil was the first rider to win the Tour de France five times and is still one of only four riders to complete the stunning record. Anquetil won the Tour de France in 1957, 1961, 1962, 1963, and 1964. He won the Giro d’Italia in both 1960 and 1964 and the Vuelta a Espana in 1963. He is one of only six cyclists to have won all three Grand Tours. Anquetil won eight Grand Tours in his career, which was a record when he retired and has only since been surpassed by Eddy Merckx and Bernard Hinault. Anquetil stated before the 1961 Tour that he would gain the yellow jersey on day one and wear it all through the tour, a tall order with two previous winners in the field—Charly Gaul and Federico Bahamontes—but he did it. His victories in stage races such as the Tour were built on an exceptional ability to ride alone against the clock in individual time trial stages, which lent him the name “Monsieur Chrono”.

- [2018 Grand Prix de Wallonie, Race Used Team Car Plaque, Equipes](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/2018-grand-prix-de-wallonie-race-used-team-car-plaque-equipes/) - Since the earliest days of racing, race organizer vehicles, team cars, and other members of the official race caravan have displayed plaques identifying their roles: officials, press, medical, advertising, team support, and more. These began as hand-painted or printed signs on heavy metal sheets, bolted directly to the vehicles. Over time, they evolved into versions made of paper affixed to wood, durable board, or plastic. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, those formats gave way to windshield stickers, disposable one-race decals that quickly became the new standard. At the time, we knew there was no turning back. But we also saw something worth celebrating in the new format, and knew we had to find a way to preserve this cherished racing tradition. Suddenly, caravan signage, already fleeting by nature, became even more ephemeral. These markers have long made fantastic souvenirs, whether as a reminder of a race you witnessed in person or on TV, a tribute to a birth year, graduation, anniversary, or a legendary edition of a race. Above all, they make for striking, race-worn display pieces in any bike room, man cave, or she shed. We’re thrilled to offer a collection of these official race caravan plaques.

- [1929 UCI Road World Championships, Concours Inter-Nations,Third Place Trophy - Made by Huguenin Frères](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1929-uci-road-world-championships-concours-inter-nations-thrid-place-trophy-made-by-huguenin-freres/) - This remarkable trophy, made by Huguenin Fréres, is a rare and historically significant artifact from the 1929 UCI Road World Championships, held in Zürich, Switzerland. Awarded for the Concours Inter-Nations, a special international team competition held alongside the official world championship races, this trophy commemorates the team that secured third place in a contest designed to foster friendly rivalry among nations. The central medallion of the trophy, set against a rich wooden mount, features a striking relief of a cyclist in full motion, framed by the initials S.R.B. (Schweizerischer Radfahrer-Bund) and U.V.S. (Union Vélocipédique Suisse)—representing the Swiss national cycling federation in German and French, reflecting the country's bilingual heritage. Behind the cyclist, the Swiss cross radiates outward, symbolizing the host nation's pride and hospitality. The lower plaque reads: “Championnats du Monde sur Route, Zürich 1929, Concours Inter-Nations, 3e Prix”,(World Road Championships, Zurich 1929, Inter-Nations Competition, 3rd Prize) An additional inscription at the top credits the Union Nationale Suisse de Tourisme—the Swiss National Tourist Union—as the event's sponsor, suggesting that the Concours Inter-Nations was both a sporting and cultural gesture promoting international camaraderie through cycling. Though official UCI records from 1929 do not include team rankings, historical race data reveal that Italy performed strongly in the professional race, with Alfredo Binda placing third and Leonida Frascarelli fifth. Based on aggregate performances, it is possible that this trophy was awarded to the Italian national team for their third-place finish in the unofficial team classification. More research needs to be done to confirm the team rankings. Elegant in design and rich with context, this trophy celebrates athletic achievement and is a tangible link to the golden age of European cycling—a symbol of international competition, craftsmanship, and the enduring spirit of sport. Size: 13 1/2 x 13 1/2 inches (34.5 x 34.5 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please review the photos carefully to determine the condition.
- [1976 Tour de France, Race Used Car Plaque, Race Winner Lucien Van Impe](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1976-tour-de-france-race-used-car-plaque-race-winner-lucien-van-impe/) - 1976 Tour de France, Race Winner Lucien Van Impe The 1976 Tour de France was an exciting spectacle. Mountain specialist Lucien Van Impe won the race in a battle with the previous winners, Bernard Thevenet and Joop Zoetemelk. Zoetemelk won three high mountain stages, including Alpe d’Huez and Puy de Dôme, but this Tour became known for the incident in which the young Directeur Sportif of Van Impe, Cyrille Guimard, threatened to run Van Impe off the road with the Team Car if he didn’t attack. Van Impe then attacked and won the Tour. The revelation of the Tour, however, was Freddy Maertens, who, in his first Tour, won eight stages and the points classification and led the general classification for ten days. Five-time winner Eddy Merckx did not participate in the 1976 Tour de France because he was injured. 1975 winner Bernard Thévenet left the race in the 19th stage, but at that point, it was already clear that Van Impe would win. The mountains classification was won by Giancarlo Bellini with 170 points, only one point ahead of Lucien Van Impe. The young rider classification was won by Enrique Martínez Heredia. Heredia had already won the Tour de l’Avenir in 1974 but never broke through after this win. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshields. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, the majority of the plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible. Made of Plastic Size: 19 1/4 x 9 1/2 inches (49 x 24 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

These flags were used well into the 1960s. For 20+ years after that, the flags were used by officials and course marshals to warn riders of oncoming danger. What is particularly appealing is during the period from post-WWII until the late 1960s, the flags had the year clearly visible. As time has marched on, the desirability of these flags has grown, with particular interest given to the years where the winner was also considered a great champion. 1963 was the third edition of the Tour de l'Avenir.

It was created to attract teams from nations that had no professional riders to enter the Tour de France. The 1963 race winner was André Zimmerman making him the first French winner of the race.

- [1964 Tour de France/Tour de l’Avenir – Race Official’s Car Flag - Jacques Anquetil, Race Winner - Full Length Dowell](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1964-tour-de-france-tour-de-lavenir-race-officials-car-flag-jacques-anquetil-race-winner-full-length-dowell/) - In addition to being one of the few years that were double-sided Tour/Avenir, this flag comes with the original full-length dowel, complete with the ball on top. Combined with a great year and Anquetil's win, this is a great display piece. In a tradition that started with the first Tour de France in 1903, these flags were affixed to wood dowels and placed in special holders on race official cars. These flags were used well into the 1960s. For 20+ years after that, the flags were used by officials and course marshals to warn riders of oncoming danger. What is particularly appealing is during the period from post-WWII until the late 1960s, the flags had the year clearly visible. As time has marched on, the desirability of these flags has grown, with particular interest given to the years where the winner was also considered a great champion. This unique two-sided flag was created for both the 1964 Tour de France and Tour de l’Avenir. Going into the 1964 Tour, the race favorite was defending champion Jacques Anquetil. He had won the 1964 Giro d'Italia earlier that year and was trying to win a Tour-Giro double, which at that time had only been achieved by Fausto Coppi. The 1964 Tour turned out to be an epic battle between Anquetil and Raymond Poulidor for the Yellow Jersey. 1964 was the fourth edition of the Tour de l’Avenir. Until 1967, the race took place earlier in the day but on the same course at the Tour de France. It was created to attract teams from nations that had no professional riders to enter the Tour de France. Felice Gimondi, an Italian amateur, was the victor in 1964, with Lucien Aimar and Ginés Garcia taking second and third.

Teams were judged based on the cumulative performance of their top riders, with the calculation methods evolving over the years Team Classification Calculation Methods: 1930–1961: Initially, the team classification was determined by adding the times of the three best cyclists from each team in the general classification. 1961–1962: The calculation shifted to a points-based system, where teams earned points based on their performance in each stage. The team with the highest points total led the classification. ​ 1963 Onwards: The classification reverted to the time-based calculation, similar to the original method.

As an amateur in 1993, he hinted at future success by winning both the Baby Giro and the Italian National Road Racing Championship. Simoni turned professional in 1994 with the Jolly Componibili-Cage team but did not secure his first professional victory until 1997. Following a strong 2000 season, Simoni started the 2001 Giro d'Italia as the undisputed leader of Team Lampre. He went on to win the race with a commanding margin of 7'31" over Abraham Olano. After his Giro triumph, Simoni moved to the Saeco–Longoni Sport team with the goal of defending his title. In 2003, Saeco entered the Giro with a singular focus: to support Simoni.

- [1965 Tour de France/Tour de l'Avenir, Race Official's Car Flag, Race winner - Felice Gimondi, Full Length Dowell](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1965-tour-de-france-tour-de-lavenir-race-officials-car-flag-race-winner-felice-gimondi-full-length-dowell/) - This unique two-sided flag was created for both the 1965 Tour de France and Tour de l’Avenir. Original full-length dowel, complete with the ball on top. An excellent display piece. In a tradition that started with the first Tour de France in 1903, these flags were affixed to wood dowels and placed in special holders on race official cars. These flags were used well into the 1960s. For 20+ years after that, the flags were used by officials and course marshals to warn riders of oncoming danger. What is particularly appealing is during the period from post-WWII until the late 1960s, the flags had the year clearly visible. As time has marched on, the desirability of these flags has grown, with particular interest given to the years where the winner was also considered a great champion. Going into the 1965 Tour, Raymond Poulidor was the race favorite. No one expected Felice Gimondi, in his first year as a professional and a last-minute addition to the Salvarani team, to be atop the podium in Paris. Gimondi is one of the very few riders to have won all three of the Grand Tours. Poulidor finished second, with Gianni Motta in third. 1965 was the 5th edition of the Tour de l'Avenir. Until 1967 the race took place earlier in the day, but on the same course at the Tour de France. It was created to attract teams from nations that had no professional riders to enter the Tour de France. The 1965 race winner was Mariano Diaz of Spain. Flag Size: 22 1/2 x 17 1/4 inches (57 x 44 cm) Stick Length: 31 1/2 in (80 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

In the months leading up to the event, excitement was palpable, with festivities taking place across France. We were honored to contribute to this landmark year by lending items from our collection to the expansive Tour exhibition at the Hôtel de Ville (City Hall) in Paris. Occupying a significant portion of the building’s ground floor, the exhibition beautifully showcased historic jerseys, trophies, and other memorabilia for the world to admire. Much like the 50th-anniversary edition in 1963, the organizers of the 2003 Tour made a concerted effort to unite all living past champions. Parades were held throughout the country, paying tribute to the profound social and cultural impact the Tour has had not just in France, but across the world. This retro jersey, created in 2003 to commemorate the Tour’s centennial, was available at many of those celebrations. What makes this particular example truly exceptional, however, is its provenance. Jim Ochowicz—founder of the 7-Eleven Cycling Team and later a key figure with the Motorola, BMC, and CCC teams—had unparalleled access to the Tour’s inner circle. The 2003 Tour was no exception. Och sat front and center for a remarkable moment: a gathering of the living five-time Tour winners—Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault, Miguel Indurain, and Lance Armstrong—for a now-iconic photo opportunity. This jersey bears the signatures of all four champions, each acquired that day by Jim Ochowicz. While other signed examples may exist, we have yet to encounter another. Without question, this is a rare and extraordinary piece of cycling history. This authentic Yellow Tour de France Retro Souvenir Jersey signed by Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault, Miguel Indurain & Lance Armstrong was acquired by The Horton Collection in the Fall of 2022 directly from BMC Team founder Jim Ochowicz as part of a substantial amount of legacy memorabilia.

Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

Zoetemelk did not wear the yellow jersey during Stage 13, though he did in every stage thereafter. He finished the race with nearly a seven-minute advantage over second-place Hennie Kuiper. It was his first Tour victory in his tenth attempt after already having finished second in five editions. During his 18-year professional career (1969–1987), Joop Zoetemelk established himself as one of cycling's most consistent and accomplished riders. He won the Tour de France in 1980 and the Vuelta a España in 1979, along with the King of the Mountains title in 1971. Known for his remarkable durability and steady performances, Zoetemelk finished second in the Tour de France six times and placed in the top five eleven times—both records in the event’s history. He completed the Tour sixteen times, a record he shares with Sylvain Chavanel, and still holds the record for the most kilometers ridden. Until 2018, he also held the record for the most stages completed, with 365. Zoetemelk’s success extended beyond the Grand Tours. In 1985, at the age of 38, he won the UCI Road World Championship in Giavera del Montello, Italy, becoming the oldest world champion in the event's history at the time. Throughout his career, he also earned notable victories in prestigious one-day classics, including Paris–Nice and Amstel Gold Race, demonstrating his versatility across different types of races and terrain. His longevity, consistency, and ability to perform at the highest level well into his late 30s cemented his legacy as one of cycling’s all-time greats.

Check out the cut-out back doors, Team and Tour stickers, steering wheel, and bike-filled rack, all ready to roll for the Tour. This car would be a fantastic addition to any desktop peloton. Peugeot and cycling have been intertwined since the earliest days of the sport. The company began producing bicycles in 1882 and sponsored its first cycling team in 1901. Over the years, the team achieved remarkable success, winning 10 Tours de France, 3 Vueltas a España, 5 Paris-Roubaix titles, and numerous other prestigious races. Riders who wore the iconic checkerboard jersey include some of the greatest names in cycling history: Eddy Merckx, Tom Simpson, Roger Pingeon, Bernard Thévenet, Sean Yates, René Pottier, and Lucien Petit-Breton, among many others. After decades of dominance, the Peugeot cycling team was disbanded in 1986, marking the end of an era in professional cycling. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal, but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

Two sizes were typical: one that transported two glasses of frosty happiness and the other designed more for a group of fans ready to enjoy the whole day. The trays were ephemeral—here today and gone tomorrow. With each passing year, these once-abundant trays become harder to find. The 1962 Tour de France was won by Jacques Anquetil of the Saint-Raphaël–Helyett–Hutchinson team, defending his title to win his third Tour de France. Jef Planckaert (Flandria–Faema–Clément) placed second, 4 min 59 s in arrears, and Raymond Poulidor (Mercier–BP–Hutchinson) was third, over ten minutes behind Anquetil. The 1962 Tour was an exciting battle, with Anquetil's teammate Rudi Altig taking the first general classification leader's yellow jersey after winning the first stage. He lost it the following day to André Darrigade of Gitane–Leroux–Dunlop–R. Geminiani, who won stage 2a before regaining it after winning stage three. The lead was taken by Saint-Raphaël rider Albertus Geldermans after stage six. He held it for two stages before Darrigade took it back for the next two. Flandria rider Willy Schroeders then led the race between the end of stage nine to the end of eleven, at which point Schroeders' teammate Rik Van Looy, a major pre-race favorite, abandoned the race with an injury. The following day, British rider Tom Simpson (Gitane–Leroux) became the first rider from outside mainland Europe in history to wear the yellow jersey. He lost it to Planckaert after stage thirteen's individual time trial to Superbagnères in the Pyrenees. He held the lead for seven stages, which included the Alps. Anquetil's victory in the individual time trial of stage twenty put him in the yellow jersey, which he held until the conclusion of the race.

Since Jacques Anquetil was absent from the Tour in 1960 after winning the Giro, Roger Riviere was the race favorite.

- [Le Dauphiné libéré Car Flag.  c.1947-1955](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/le-dauphine-libere-car-flag-c-1950s/) - This flag is gorgeous, with beautiful rich colors, wonderfully detailed chain stitching on both sides all on two colors of heavy canvas fabric stiched together to form the color blocks . The Critérium du Dauphiné is an annual cycling stage race held in the Dauphiné region of southeastern France. Established in 1947 by the Grenoble-based newspaper Le Dauphiné libéré, it was created to promote the newspaper's circulation in the years following World War II. The event quickly became a hallmark of professional cycling, with its eight-day stage race format traditionally held in the first half of June. The Dauphiné is renowned for its challenging mountainous route, including iconic climbs from the Tour de France, such as Mont Ventoux, Col du Galibier, and Col de la Chartreuse. These notoriously demanding stages and the Dauphiné's timing just ahead of the Tour make it an ideal preparation race for Grand Tour contenders. Over the decades, many riders—including Henry Anglade, Louison Bobet, Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, and Bernard Hinault—have used the Dauphiné to fine-tune their form and training, with several also going on to win the Tour de France in the same season. Edward Klabinski of the Mercier-Hutchinson Team won the inaugural edition in 1947. The Dauphiné continues to attract the world's best cyclists, serving as a test of endurance and a stage for memorable performances. Primož Roglič of Bora-Hansgrohe won the 2024 edition, adding another illustrious name to the race's history.

Eighty years later, Ouest-France continues to be a vibrant contributor to French journalism.

It would be a fantastic addition to any desktop peloton. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

Quiralu was a French toy company renowned for its high-quality products during the mid-20th century. The company was founded in 1932 by Émile Quirin, who also operated a family art foundry in Luxeuil-les-Bains, in the Haute-Saône department of France. Initially, Quiralu focused on manufacturing a variety of metal products, including household items and decorative objects. However, in the late 1930s, the company shifted its focus to producing metal toys. Quiralu quickly gained a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail in its toy designs. During the 1940s and 1950s, the company enjoyed significant success and became well-known for its miniature figures. These included cyclists, toy soldiers, cars, cowboys, athletes, and various characters from popular culture. Quiralu used a process known as zamak casting, involving the use of a zinc alloy to create detailed shapes by pouring molten metal into molds. In 1941, Émile's son-in-law, Hubert Desgranges, took over the business. Later, in 1948, Émile’s grandson, Bernard Desgranges, assumed leadership of the company. Sadly, the foundry closed in 1964. Despite its relatively short existence, Quiralu's figures remain highly prized by collectors today for their craftsmanship, beauty, and intricate details.

- [Paul Guignard (FRA) Stayer Racing, The Original Speed Freak!](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/paul-guignard-fra-stayer-racing/) - Guignard entrainé par Peguy (Guignard trained by Peguy) Paul Guignard had a very long and successful career as a professional cyclist from 1894 until 1921. Guignard mainly specialized in motor-paced racing. In this discipline, he won a gold, silver, and bronze medal at the worlds in 1913, 1905, and 1921, as well as European titles in 1905, 1906, 1909, and 1912. Guignard began his cycling career as a road racer and in 1895 won the Paris-Besancon 417 km race. After completing his military service, he briefly raced as a pilot and won the "Grand Prix of Algiers". He returned to cycling in 1904 and on 8 April 1905 set a new world record in the one-hour race at 89.904 km (behind a pacer). He won his last medal at the UCI Motor-paced World Championships in 1921, aged 45. At the beginning of the 20th century, motor-paced racing was all the rage. Tucked close behind the big motors, the "stayer" riders -forks turned backward and gears impossibly high- absolutely flew. Once pneumatic tires came to being, speed records shot up significantly. From 1895 to 1905 the maximum speed records rose from 46km to 89km per hour. Image going that fast on the bike in the photo! All of the postal cards on our site are original, no reproductions.

To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

Stage 8 was a hilly stage from Valentigney to Divonne-les-Bains. Esclassan was able to take advantage of Sibille's slipstream giving France its first stage victory of the race over race leader Freddy Maertens who finished second on the stage. These beautiful large-format original press photographs are directly from the archives of Miroir du Cyclisme and Miroir-Sprint. The reverse of each photo bears the Miroir markings as a road map of its history and authenticity. The images are all stamped by either Miroir du Cyclisme or Miroir-Sprint; many have publication crop marks or show the page and magazine issue the photo was used in. Some even bear a unique stamp with the name of the photographer. Miroir du Cyclisme was a French monthly magazine, a photo-focused wonderland of cycling news and historical articles for 35 years, from 1960 to 1994. The companion publication, Miroir-Sprint, came out weekly and reported on news of various sports from 1946 to 1971. In the era before streaming and on-demand viewing, publications like Miroir were how fans kept up on racing results, followed their favorite riders, and stayed current on all things cycling. Renowned cycling photographers Henri and Marcel Besson, Jean Jaffre, Louis Lucchesi, Roger Monnet, Roger Touchard, and others were featured prominently in both publications, and works from these important photojournalists are included in the selection offered here. Maurice Vidal founded the magazine and ran it until he died in 1992, which directly contributed to its long-time consistent look and feel. The issues of both these publications are a treasure trove of cycling history; art and photographs are very collectible among cycling fans.

It had 22 stages and a distance of 4,329 km (2,690 mi). Lucien Aimar was a domestique on the Ford France- Hutchinson team of 5-time Tour winner Jacques Anquetil. Aimar joined a breakaway in the middle of the Tour and ended up on the leaderboard. Anquetil then began helping Aimar win the Tour to make sure and deny it to his then-enemy Raymond Poulidor. After stage 18, Aimar's victory was certain, barring disaster. Anquetil rode hard that day to ensure the win and then quit the race. Willy Planckaert and the mountains classification by Julio Jiménez won the points classification. Kas-Kaskol won the team classification. In today’s racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshield. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, most plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible.

The lovely, clear inscription reads, "Amites a Charly, Thevenet." Eddy Merckx entered the 1975 Tour de France as the clear favorite, having won all five of his previous participations. However, on Stage 14's ascent of the Puy de Dôme, a disgruntled spectator punched Merckx while he was wearing the yellow jersey. After a rest day, the race resumed with Stage 15, a demanding mountain route from Nice to Pra Loup. Struggling visibly, Merckx fell behind on the climb, allowing Bernard Thévenet to attack 2 km from the finish and claim the stage victory by 2 minutes. Thévenet ultimately took the yellow jersey and, later, the overall victory in Paris. He finished 2 minutes and 47 seconds ahead of Merckx and 5 minutes and 7 seconds ahead of Lucien Van Impe in third place. Thévenet raced professionally from 1970 to 1981, spending all but two of those years with the iconic Peugeot-BP-Michelin Team. He won the Tour again in 1977 and accumulated nine Tour stage victories, one Vuelta stage win, and wins at the Tour of Romandie, Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré, and Critérium International, among other victories during his career.

A fantastic addition to any desktop peloton. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

- [Peugeot D3A Race Van, Salza c. 1960s/70s, 1/43 Scale](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/peugeot-d3a-race-van-salza-c-1960s-70s-1-43-scale/) - This is a great example of a Tour de France support vehicle sporting l'Equipe, Le Parisien, SCIC, and SPAR stickers. This would be a fantastic addition to any desktop peloton. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia.

- [1954 Sud-Ouest Team, Tour de France Series, Peloton Rider, Big Nose-Gros Nez, Fonderie Roger, c.1960s](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1954-sud-ouest-team-tour-de-france-series-peloton-rider-big-nose-gros-nez-fonderie-roger-c-1960s-4/) - Original Vintage Diecast Metal Peloton Rider made in the 1960s This Big-Nose rider is sporting the 1954 version of the jersey worn by the Sud-Ouest (South-West) Team at the Tour de France. These quirky riders with the signature potato-shaped nose, known as the "Big Nose" or "Gros Nez" version, were originally the result of a poorly made mold. What started as a mistake has resulted in a rare and popular collectible variation. Founded in 1930 by Henri Roger in Paris, Fonderie Roger began producing toy cyclists in the 1950s. The early models, crafted from a zinc alloy called zamak, featured separate bases that often went missing, leaving the riders unable to stand upright. This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular. By the mid-1960s, the factory relocated to Egreville, France, where it produced thousands of cyclists annually, primarily for markets in France, Belgium, and Italy. Following Henri's retirement in 1960, his son Pierre Roger took over the business. Under Pierre’s leadership, the company expanded its product line to include toy cars marketed under the PR label. Today, the Foundrie Roger continues the tradition of crafting die-cast metal cyclists with the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship. Maker: Fonderie Roger Diecast Metal, Zamak Size: 1 5/8 tall x 2 long (42 x 50 mm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

The images are all stamped by either Miroir du Cyclisme or Miroir-Sprint; many have publication crop marks or show the page and magazine issue the photo was used in. Some even bear a unique stamp with the name of the photographer. Miroir du Cyclisme was a French monthly magazine, a photo-focused wonderland of cycling news and historical articles for 35 years, from 1960 to 1994. The companion publication, Miroir-Sprint, came out weekly and reported on news of various sports from 1946 to 1971. In the era before streaming and on-demand viewing, publications like Miroir were how fans kept up on racing results, followed their favorite riders, and stayed current on all things cycling. Renowned cycling photographers Henri and Marcel Besson, Jean Jaffre, Louis Lucchesi, Roger Monnet, Roger Touchard, and others were featured prominently in both publications, and works from these important photojournalists are included in the selection offered here. Maurice Vidal founded the magazine and ran it until he died in 1992, which directly contributed to its long-time consistent look and feel.

The early models, crafted from a zinc alloy called zamak, featured separate bases that often went missing, leaving the riders unable to stand upright. This issue was quickly addressed by refining the molds, resulting in beautifully detailed, durable toys that became immensely popular. By the mid-1960s, the factory relocated to Egreville, France, where it produced thousands of cyclists annually, primarily for markets in France, Belgium, and Italy. Following Henri's retirement in 1960, his son Pierre Roger took over the business. Under Pierre’s leadership, the company expanded its product line to include toy cars marketed under the PR label. Today, the Foundrie Roger continues the tradition of crafting die-cast metal cyclists with the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship.

- [Flandria, Authentic Vintage Cycling Team Hat](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/flandria-authentic-vintage-cycling-team-hat/) - A fantastic, authentic, original Flandria Team hat, one of the most successful and iconic cycling teams of all time. Along with Flandria on each side of the cap, R. Defour - Zedelem is featured on the brim. Flandia was a bicycle manufacturer that sponsored a professional Belgian team from 1957 to 1979. The original team was built around Joseph Planckaert and Rik Van Looy. Youngsters Eddy Merckx, Peter Post, Herman Van Springel, and Walter Godefroot all joined at the early stages of their careers, although some, such as Merckx, left soon after to become leaders of their teams. After Van Looy's retirement, Belgian Freddy Maertens took over the leadership mantle, famous for his rivalry with Eddy Merckx. Irishman Sean Kelly also started his professional career with Flandria as Maertens' super-domestique. Joop Zoetemelk rode for the team from 1970-1972, finishing on the podium twice in the Tour de France.

- [Peloton Rider,  Salza  c.1970](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/peloton-rider-salza-c-1970-47/) - Original Vintage Diecast Metal Peloton Rider These little beauties are a fantastic addition to any cycling collection. Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

This wonderful image graced the cover of Miroir Sprint on May 7, 1968. The Trophée des Grimpeurs, called Polymultipliée until 1970, was a single-day road bicycle race held annually in August in the region of Val-d’Oise, France, between Argenteuil and Sannois. As an amateur, Jean Jourden won the road race at the 1961 UCI Road World Championships. In 1965 he turned professional and competed until 1972. He won several minor races and rode the Tour de France in 1968 and 1969. These beautiful large-format original press photographs are directly from the archives of Miroir du Cyclisme and Miroir-Sprint. The reverse of each photo bears the Miroir markings as a road map of its history and authenticity. The images are all stamped by either Miroir du Cyclisme or Miroir-Sprint; many have publication crop marks or show the page and magazine issue the photo was used in. Some even bear a unique stamp with the name of the photographer. Miroir du Cyclisme was a French monthly magazine, a photo-focused wonderland of cycling news and historical articles for 35 years, from 1960 to 1994. The companion publication, Miroir-Sprint, came out weekly and reported on news of various sports from 1946 to 1971. In the era before streaming and on-demand viewing, publications like Miroir were how fans kept up on racing results, followed their favorite riders, and stayed current on all things cycling. Renowned cycling photographers Henri and Marcel Besson, Jean Jaffre, Louis Lucchesi, Roger Monnet, Roger Touchard, and others were featured prominently in both publications, and works from these important photojournalists are included in the selection offered here. Maurice Vidal founded the magazine and ran it until he died in 1992, which directly contributed to its long-time consistent look and feel. The issues of both these publications are a treasure trove of cycling history; art and photographs are very collectible among cycling fans. Miroir Sprint Magazine NOT included.

Salza, a French company founded by Victor Salza in 1947, became renowned among cycling fans for producing detailed model race vehicles and cyclists. Victor Salza, born in Italy in 1915, was passionate about accuracy and took meticulous steps to ensure his figurines were as realistic as possible. To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza's cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia.

To achieve this, he would attend races in person to photograph the cyclists and vehicles to replicate them precisely. Initially, the figurines were metal but later transitioned to plastic. The cyclists were depicted in various dynamic poses, such as raising their arms in victory, carrying flowers after a win, grabbing a musette, or drinking from a water bottle. Salza also created figurines representing other characters involved in cycling races, such as police officers (gendarmes), motorcycles, cameramen, team support crew, and follow cars. In the early days, Salza’s cyclists were relatively simple, flat silhouettes. However, by the early 1950s, the company introduced more complex 3D figurines. These models initially sported national or regional jerseys, with advertising jerseys not appearing until 1962. The figurines were often sold individually or in sets, sometimes including scenic backgrounds and additional characters to complete the scene. Salza’s attention to detail and realistic depictions have made these collectibles cherished pieces in cycling memorabilia. Sadly, the Salza factory closed for good in 1978, but these charming toys live on.

The race took place between 26 June and 17 July, with 21 stages covering a distance of 4,173 km (2,593 mi). The race featured 128 riders, of which 81 finished. Since Jacques Anquetil was absent from the Tour in 1960 after winning the Giro, Roger Riviere was the race favorite. Halfway into the race, Rivière was in second place behind Nencini, and with his specialty the time trial remaining, he was still favored for the victory. Sadly, Rivière had a career-ending crash in the fourteenth stage, and Gaston Nencini won the 1960 Tour. Nencini was an excellent all-around rider but was especially strong in the mountains and the descents. He won the Tour de France in 1960 and the Giro d’Italia in 1957. Fellow rider Raphael Geninani once said, “The only reason to follow Nencini downhill would be if you had a death wish.” Liven up your wall or bar!

- [Ouest-France Newspaper Tour de France Car Flag](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/ouest-france-newspaper-tour-de-france-car-flag/) - Ouest-France newspaper started during WWII. Beginning right after the war, the newspaper's distinct cars with catchy, mid-century logo designs quickly established themselves in the Tour de France caravan. This flag was displayed prominently on the front of the Ouest-France car in special purpose holders. Virtually all Tour de France race caravan cars used the iconic and easily identifiable blue-painted stick. The grommet on the nose allowed the flag to be wired tight for logo display. Unwired, the flag could flap freely in the wind as the car sauntered through its three-week journey through France, following the race each day. Eighty years later, Ouest-France continues to be a vibrant contributor to French journalism.

- [Tour de France, 1960 Bar Tray - 14 ½", Race Winner Gastone Nencini](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/tour-de-france-1960-bar-tray-14-½-race-winner-gastone-nencini/) - 1960 marked the 47th edition of the Tour de France. The race took place between 26 June and 17 July, with 21 stages covering a distance of 4,173 km (2,593 mi). The race featured 128 riders, of which 81 finished. Since Jacques Anquetil was absent from the Tour in 1960 after winning the Giro, Roger Riviere was the race favorite. Halfway into the race, Rivière was in second place behind Nencini, and with his specialty the time trial remaining, he was still favored for the victory. Sadly, Rivière had a career-ending crash in the fourteenth stage, and Gaston Nencini won the 1960 Tour. Nencini was an excellent all-around rider but was especially strong in the mountains and the descents. He won the Tour de France in 1960 and the Giro d’Italia in 1957. Fellow rider Raphael Geninani once said, “The only reason to follow Nencini downhill would be if you had a death wish.” Liven up your wall or bar! This bar-used tray has plenty of life left for your beer-serving pleasure. From the early 1950s through the late 1970s, beer and spirit companies plied the bars of France with Tour de France-inspired metal beer trays. Two sizes were typical, one that transported two glasses of frosty happiness, the other designed more for a group of fans ready to enjoy the whole day. The trays were ephemeral, here today and gone tomorrow. With each passing year, these once-abundant trays become more challenging to find. Size: 14 1/2 inches (37cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item.

Two sizes were typical, one that transported two glasses of frosty happiness, the other designed more for a group of fans ready to enjoy the whole day. The trays were ephemeral, here today and gone tomorrow. With each passing year, these once-abundant trays become harder to find. The 1962 Tour de France was won by Jacques Anquetil of the Saint-Raphaël–Helyett–Hutchinson Team, defending his title to win his third Tour de France. Jef Planckaert (Flandria–Faema–Clément) placed second, 4 min 59 s in arrears, and Raymond Poulidor (Mercier–BP–Hutchinson) was third, over ten minutes behind Anquetil. The 1962 Tour was an exciting battle, with Anquetil’s teammate Rudi Altig taking the first general classification leader’s yellow jersey after winning the first stage. He lost it the following day to André Darrigade of Gitane–Leroux–Dunlop–R. Geminiani, who won stage 2a before regaining it after winning stage three. The lead was taken by Saint-Raphaël rider Albertus Geldermans after stage six. He held it for two stages before Darrigade took it back for the next two. Flandria rider Willy Schroeders then led the race between the end of stage nine to the end of eleven, at which point Schroeders’ teammate Rik Van Looy, a major pre-race favorite, abandoned the race with an injury. The following day, British rider Tom Simpson (Gitane–Leroux) became the first rider from outside mainland Europe in history to wear the yellow jersey. He lost it to Planckaert after stage thirteen’s individual time trial to Superbagnères in the Pyrenees. He held the lead for seven stages, which included the Alps. Anquetil’s victory in the individual time trial of stage twenty put him in the yellow jersey, which he held until the conclusion of the race.

Liven up your wall or bar! This bar-used tray from 1963 has plenty of life left for your beer-serving pleasure. From the early 1950s through the late 1970s, beer and spirit companies plied the bars of France with Tour de France-inspired metal beer trays.

The trays were ephemeral, here today and gone tomorrow. With each passing year, these once-abundant trays become more challenging to find. This tray, from the 1963 Tour, presents the course of that year's Tour. And what a year it was! The organizers had grown a bit tired of Jacques Anquetil's supremacy at their race. So when designing the course, they purposely cut the total distance of the time trials to a mere 79 kilometers - compared with 130 kilometers the previous year. It was an attempt to make the 50th edition of the Tour more suited to climbers. Their plan failed as Anquetil went on to win his 4th Tour de France.

- [1969 Tour de l’Avenir, Race Used Moto Plaque, Race Winner Joop Zoetemelk](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1969-tour-de-lavenir-race-used-moto-plaque-race-winner-joop-zoetemelk/) - 1969 Tour de l’Avenir, Race Winner Joop Zoetemelk The Tour de l'Avenir (English: Tour of the Future) is a French road bicycle racing stage race. It started in 1961 as a race similar to the Tour de France over much of the same course but for amateurs and semi-professionals known as independents. Felice Gimondi, Joop Zoetemelk, Greg LeMond, Miguel Induráin, Laurent Fignon, Egan Bernal, and Tadej Pogačar won the Tour de l'Avenir and went on to win 15 Tours de France, with an additional ten podium placings between them. The Tour de l'Avenir, a race that has left an indelible mark on the world of cycling, was born in 1961. Its creator, Jacques Marchand, the editor of L'Équipe, envisioned a race that would attract teams from the Soviet Union and other communist nations that had no professional riders to enter the Tour de France. His vision became a reality, and the race was born. Until 1967, it took place earlier, on the same day as some of the stages of the Tour de France, and shared the latter part of each stage's route, but it moved to September and a separate course from 1968 onwards. It became the Grand Prix de l'Avenir in 1970, the Trophée Peugeot de l'Avenir from 1972 to 1979, and the Tour de la Communauté Européenne from 1986 to 1990. It was restricted to amateurs from 1961 to 1980 before opening to professionals in 1981. After 1992, it was open to all riders under 25 years old. Since 2007, it has been for riders aged 18 to 22 and is held as part of the UCI Nations Cup. National teams, rather than trade teams, take part in the race.

- [KAS, Original Vintage Cycling Team Hat](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/kas-original-vintage-cycling-team-hat/) - Original Vintage Team Cycling Cap Team Kas was a Spanish-based team active from 1958 until 1979 and again for three years in the 1980s. Its name was derived from the name of the team's principal sponsor, the soft drinks manufacturer Kas. The team was principally based in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain. Its riders typically wore a jersey that consisted of yellow and blue. In 1959 the team signed the 1958 Spanish champion, Federico Bahamontes, who at that time had won two King of the Mountains classifications in both the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España. The Tour de France was disputed by national teams and Bahamontes won the Tour in 1959. Bahamontes left in 1960 but the team won the King of the Mountains in the 1960, 1961 and 1962 Vuelta a España with Antonio Karmay Mestre. Julio Jiménez again won the King of the Mountains in the 1964 and 1965 Vuelta a España. Kas–Kaskol dominated the 1966 Vuelta with Francisco Gabica winning, Eusebio Vélez Mendizabal second and Carlos Echeverría third. It also dominated the King of the Mountains competition with Gregorio San Miguel winning. The team won six stages and held the yellow jersey for 14 of the 18 stages. (Excerpt from Wikipedia).

The day was won by Roder De Vlaeminck (Bel), with Wilmo Francioni (Ita) and Felice Gimondi (Ita) taking second and third. De Vlaeminck raced as a pro for 16 seasons, from 1969-1984, and was an absolute beast during the 1970s. Mention the name Roger De Vlaeminck, and the race that first comes to mind is Paris-Roubaix. He won it a record four times. He also hit the victory punch card at all the monuments, one of only three riders to do so. The others were Eddy Merckx and Rik Van Looy. It must be something in the Belgian water. Often overlooked in the American press is the fact that he won stages in all three grand tours, including 22 at the Giro d’Italia, which he raced nine times. And he just so happened to win the overall at Tirreno-Adriatico six years in a row. The fact that he was also the world cyclo-cross champion in 1975 sheds light on bike-handling skills that come in handy on those springtime cobblestones covered in mud and moss. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshield. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, the majority of the plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible.

The lion made its first appearance in 1987 as a marketing tool by the French Bank Crédit Lyonnais (now called LCL), the Yellow Jersey corporate sponsor. The lion, a long-time symbol of the bank, was the perfect thing to turn into an easily recognizable stuffed animal to award the Yellow Jersey winners. There is something both charming and kitsch about these lions, particularly those from 10-plus years ago. Each year, they are slightly different, and even within a year, the details of the faces are quite unique.

- [c.1960 Tour de France - SPAR Musette Bag](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/c-1960-tour-de-france-spar-musette-bag-4/) - Long before each team had its own branded musettes, the Tour organization provided them to teams. 50+ year-old musettes like this one are getting progressively tougher to come by with each passing year. The Musette: A Simple Cloth Bag and Icon of Cycling We see riders wrapped in spare tubes with goggles firmly in place, carrying the unmistakable fabric food bag from bicycle racing's earliest photographs. This simple but vital musette bag takes its name from the nose bag often seen hanging around horses' necks. Getting food and water to riders has always been a tricky but crucial part of racing. In the early days, to supplement what a rider could carry in a musette, riders often raided bars and cafes, leaving bills for race organizers to settle later. Formal feed zones were introduced to racing in 1919, but riders still had to stop to take on provisions from large tables. By the 1950s, the random cafes and tables of food began to be replaced by team staff on the side of the road handing off the musettes to riders who did not need to stop and risk losing valuable time. As cycling technology advances, with innovations like radios and wireless shifting, the proven and straightforward musette bag remains a vital method to get food and drinks to riders in the peloton. In the early days, musettes were not available for fans to purchase. They were highly prized and collected, especially when a favorite brand or race was featured. Size: 11.5 x 9.5 inches (29 x 24 cm) This item is one of a kind; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.
- [1977 Tour de France, Race Used Moto Plaque, Race Winner Bernard Thevenet](https://www.hortoncollection.com/product/1974-tour-de-france-race-used-moto-plaque-eddy-merckxs-fifth-tour-win-copy/) - Race Winner Bernard Thevenet Going into the 1977 Tour, Bernard Thevenet, winner of the 1975 Tour, was the favorite to win since the route was well-suited to his skills. Dietrich Thurau led the Tour through Stage 15a when Thevenet took the lead. Lucien Van Impe, the previous year's winner, wanted to repeat his victory, and going into Stage 16, Van Impe, along with Eddy Merckx and Joop Zoetemelk, were all within about 1 minute of Bernard Thévenet. Merckx fell off the back near the end of the Tour, Zoetemelk was penalized ten minutes, and Van Impe had his bike damaged when he was hit by a motorist on Alpe d'Huez, where Kuiper won the stage but was unable to break Thévenet, who won the Tour with the smallest margin since the 1968 Tour de France. After a competitive and thrilling race, Thevenet finished in Paris, only 48 seconds ahead of Hennie Kuiper and 3′ 32″ over third-place finisher Lucien Van Impe. In today's racing, the race organizer cars, team vehicles, and other participants of the official race caravan have disposable stickers affixed to the windshield. Slipping a bit into the way back machine, there was a time when the cars had plaques attached to the front of the follow cars. As with most things ephemeral, most plaques were promptly tossed in the trash once the race was finished. The ones that survived have become quite collectible. Made of Plastic Size: 7 7/8 x 7 7/8 inches (20 x 20 cm) This is a one-of-a-kind item; please look carefully at the photos to determine the condition.

- [Original Vintage Cycling Posters](https://www.hortoncollection.com/category/posters/original-vintage-cycling-posters/) - ALL NEW POSTER INVENTORY, WITH MORE COMING! All posters in this section are guaranteed original. They have been linen-backed unless otherwise noted. Vintage posters are the original form of advertising. These posters, made to advertise products, were never intended to last; they were hung outdoors, rained on, and eventually torn down or covered up. The early process of stone lithography created beautiful images, but quantities were small; generally, only 2,000 to 3,000 were printed. The examples that have survived are those that were not displayed; they are the extras that didn’t get used. By the 1950s, posters were being printed using more technologically advanced processes than labor-intensive stone lithography. Modern-era posters are crisp and vibrant and capture the riders at the perfect moment in time. Official race posters have bold color schemes that jump off the wall. From their roots in the second half of the 1800s, contemporary posters continue to tell the ever-evolving story of cycling. ARCHIVAL LINEN BACKING – While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters. Our Original Vintage Posters are linen-backed unless otherwise noted.

For modern jerseys, we go to great lengths to take delivery of the jerseys from the riders immediately after a race. At least when we get a riders jersey at the race, with numbers still attached and dripping with sweat, you know it has rock-solid provenance.

- [BMC & Motorola Cycling Team Gear](https://www.hortoncollection.com/category/bmc-racing-team-collection/) - We were thrilled to be invited to the BMC Racing Team’s headquarters in Santa Rosa, California, to acquire a wide range of memorabilia, clothing, and collectibles directly from the team. Gavin Chilcott, BMC Team COO, was very kind in letting us acquire the truly “good stuff.” We were able to scour through boxes, crates, and other tucked-away storage spaces. Several star riders had specifically labeled boxes, one next to the other: Thor Hushovd’s clothing, then Phillipe Gilbert, Cadel Evans, Taylor Phinney, George Hincapie, and the list goes on. The historical New Old Stock Motorola items were acquired by The Horton Collection in the Fall of 2022 directly from Motorola Team founder Jim Ochowicz as part of a substantial amount of legacy memorabilia. All the items here are authentic BMC Team or Motorola items. No replicas, no watered-down retail goods. The clothing and helmets on this page are not similar to what the BMC riders wore; they ARE what they wore. A Certificate of Authenticity accompanies all items that were part of this incredible cache of cycling history.

- [Cars, Riders & Toys](https://www.hortoncollection.com/category/bicycle-racing-memorabilia/cars-toys/) - The peloton riders, much like the toy soldiers in America, were at their peak of popularity in the 1940s through ‘60s. However, unlike the cheap plastic toy soldiers that were commonplace in the U.S., every cyclist figurine was made of metal and painted by hand, resulting in a beautiful, straightforward toy. Beyond the familiar pose of a rider in the drops, there were follow cars, caravan motos, riders posed as race winners or drinking from a water bottle, soigneurs, fans and finish-line banners. Like the green army men, the riders helped children play out their dreams, reenact their favorite moments from races, have epic battles on the famous climbs of the Tour, or anything else they could think up.
- [Daniel Rebour - Original Art](https://www.hortoncollection.com/category/bicycle-racing-memorabilia/original-rebour-art/) - Daniel Rebour was a master of technical drawings of bicycles, their parts, and accessories. His thousands of drawings are scattered throughout old magazines, catalogs, and other publications. From 1945 until the early 1980s, he created hundreds of meticulous, intricate drawings. Rebour’s drawings captured components and bicycles better than photographs could. He turned the most ordinary bicycle component into a work of art. Rebour, born in Le Havre around 1908, honed his skills in technical illustration in Paris, graduating in 1928. His career took off when he found work as a test rider and illustrator for a motorcycling magazine. During the Second World War, he illustrated car parts catalogs. Post-war, he was invited by a friend to join a new magazine, Le Cycle, as an illustrator and technical editor. The magazine, which started in September 1945, continued until the last issue was published in December 1975. Rebour’s detailed drawings, a testament to his mastery, continued to grace catalogs, including those produced for André Bertin, Rene Herse, and the VAR tool company. Rebour’s influence extended far beyond his active years; he retired in the 1980s, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire. He passed away in 1991, but his drawings remain a testament to his immense skill and passion. (Sources: PezCyclingsNews.com & ReneHerseCycles.com)
- [Car & Moto Plaques](https://www.hortoncollection.com/category/bicycle-racing-memorabilia/car-moto-plaques/) - Since the earliest days of racing, race organizer vehicles, team cars, and other members of the official race caravan have displayed plaques identifying their roles: officials, press, medical, advertising, team support, and more. These began as hand-painted or printed signs on heavy metal sheets, bolted directly to the vehicles. Over time, they evolved into versions made of paper affixed to wood, durable board, or plastic. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, those formats gave way to windshield stickers, disposable one-race decals that quickly became the new standard. At the time, we knew there was no turning back. But we also saw something worth celebrating in the new format, and knew we had to find a way to preserve this cherished racing tradition. Suddenly, caravan signage, already fleeting by nature, became even more ephemeral. These markers have long made fantastic souvenirs, whether as a reminder of a race you witnessed in person or on TV, a tribute to a birth year, graduation, anniversary, or a legendary edition of a race. Above all, they make for striking, race-worn display pieces in any bike room, man cave, or she shed.
