Our Posters provide a glimpse of an era when the bicycle was the king of transportation and on the cutting edge of technology.
These posters depict famous races and racers, bicycle brands and component manufactures.
Beautiful women in elegant clothes are often part of the advertising message of these posters. This is because the manufacturers were selling freedom to women in the suffragette era at the turn of the century as much as they were selling bicycles.
Misti (Ferdinand Mifliez) 1865-1923
Born, raised and educated in Paris, Misti was a true Parisian and as such, he depicted life in Paris flawlessly. Misti was first trained as an industrial designer, and was influenced to make posters while working at the printing house, Chaix. He made his first poster in 1893 and later became one of the busiest posterists of his time, following in the footsteps of his mentor, Jules Cheret.
