Rebour drawing page from 1952 Le Cycle

I was lucky enough to locate another set of Daniel Rebour drawings during my travels in France. Unlike my other sets of Rebour drawings, I also have the page from Le Cycle magazine that the drawings were used for. Win-Win!! I now have to have my friend properly restore and make the drawings archival.

Daniel Rebour drawings

Here are two sheets of Daniel Rebour drawing that I acquired this spring.
I have always loved his drawings and finally bought the drawings for myself, this is after I bought a sheet for my boss a couple years ago.
He did drawings for most of the French manufacturers including Rene Herse, Alex Singer, Simplex, and others.
how amazing are they!
The Data Book has a bunch of his illustrations. it can be purchased from Van der Plas Publishing.



****Update****
On Aldo Ross's excellent blog- Welcome to the Island of Misfit Bicycle- he actually features one of the bicycle lights illustrated on my drawing. His blog features many cool pictures from le Cycle, But Club, and other French cycling magazines.
