Manufacture Roubaisienne. ca. 1900.
One of the most charming bicycle posters ever created, we see a winged Pierrot and his Pierrette romantically riding across the night sky. Roubaix, where these cycles are manufactured, also happens to be the finishing leg of the famous Paris-Roubaix cycling race, adding some professional caché to this otherwise whimsical company.
