The Bookshelf Sprint

Pedal faster….

These antique hand painted miniature cyclists, made from cast metal were a popular toy in France during the 1950′s to 70′s. Many great riders recall them with fond memories. Still made today in France by Roger Fonderic, with an array of styles, colours and exquisite detail.

Also pictured in Rouler Magazine – Les P’Tits Velos by Janol Apin’s.
