Cycling/Ronsse/M.Bidot/Rainbow/Tricolor/Roubaix/Phrygian. Little-known original poster: "La Française-Diamant, Champion du Monde, Champion de France, Marianne 1929, Bordeaux-Paris, Paris-Roubaix...". By G.Faure. That year, the grand old tricolore brand was still going strong, and Marianne, its national muse (tricolore jersey, Phrygian bonnet), could hold France and the World at arm's length, but she'd done it all... A great year, which in 1929 was like a bib of invincibility for Marianne. With Ronsse, it was the double at the World Cup and Bordeaux-Paris, with Meunier, it was the Hell of the North, and with Marcel Bidot, it was the tricolor jersey. Lithograph, 120x80.5. TBE.
