Pneu Velo Continental is a c.1910 French Belle Epoque advertisement for bicycle tires. A robed beautiful woman, most likely an allegorical figure, triumphantly holds up the tire in one hand and a victory wreath in the other. Behind her in the distance are pictured a zeppelin and early aircrafts.

Pneu Velo Continental was founded in 1871 in Hanover, Germany. Their business originally focused on pneumatic tires (tires inflated with compressed air) but later branched into automotive parts and rubber recycling. Today the company is known as Continental AG.

  • If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

  • Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

  • The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
