Eddy Merckx & Roger De Vlaeminck
Paris-Roubaix, 1975

The spring classic Paris-Roubaix is fondly known as the Hell of the North. One of cycling’s oldest races, it is often wet and muddy and takes the riders over rough, cobbled roads. 

Three-time Paris-Roubaix winner Eddy Merckx & four-time winner Roger De Vlaemink are captured here slogging through the mud at the 1975 Paris-Roubaix.

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 is packaged in a crystal-clear sealed bag with a descriptive insert, beautifully packaged for gift-giving.

Description

Despite our efforts to find the name of the photographer of this image, it currently remains a mystery. As was common practice at the time, original photographs often had no reference as to the name of the photographer. Rather, there were crop marks and other notations written on the back of the original photograph that was used in the print publication process. As always, we welcome any knowledge regarding the awesome photographers that so deftly captured and continue to capture the vibrant landscape of cycling.

Litho Size: 8 in. x 10 in.
