Cycles RAD. ca. 1919.
Not much is known about this obscure French bicycle company, advertising here the superiority of their all-road bikes. This image likely depicts the course of the Paris-Roubaix race, famous for its rough, cobblestone roads. The race was nicknamed "The hell of the North" after WWI, due to the destruction the course and its surrounding areas had sustained during the war, as shown here.
