With the advent of good photographs, both film and digital, illustrations have gone the way of
lugged steel bikes in the pro peloton.
Probably the best known bicycle illustrator was Daniel Rebour. His data book is legend, and the
illustrations are top notch. I personally love the line drawings, it's probably one of my
favorite art forms
Here's an example that's interesting in that it's a threadless stem and the illustration was done in 1949.

Does anyone here have any original Rebour illustrations?
Post your favorite Rebour drawing.
