Retro cyclisme is a set of twelve postcards of champion cyclists from the turn of 20th Century. The series of photographs, originating from French grocery store Felix Potins promotional cards, documents and portrays individual champions from a long gone era of pioneering cycling. World champions such as the American Major Taylor, the Belgian Dickentmann or the Dane Ellegard, all but forgotten today pose on their best bicycle for the camera.
