The 1911 original poster for La Bicyclette - Le Globe is a remarkable testament to the early 20th-century cycling culture and the rise of competitive sports marketing. Created to promote the Le Globe bicycle brand, this poster emphasizes its association with significant cycling achievements, including victories in prestigious races like the Tour de France 1910 and 1911 and the grueling Paris-Brest-Paris 1911. Cycling was rapidly gaining popularity in Europe during this era, not only as a mode of transportation but as a competitive sport that captured the imagination of the public. The poster highlights Le Globe bicycles’ durability and superior design, attributing their performance to technological advancements such as the Eadie freewheel, Hans Renold chain, and Bowden brakes.
