Vintage Peugeot Valentigny French Military Motorcycle Advertising Poster
This charming vintage advertisement features a uniformed French soldier riding a classic Peugeot motorcycle through a rustic countryside setting. The illustration, signed by artist E. Thélém, depicts the rider calmly smoking a pipe while navigating past a pair of startled white geese. In the background, horses and traditional thatched-roof buildings highlight the transition from animal-powered transport to early mechanical engineering.
The poster represents the Valentigny (Doubs) factory and utilizes a soft, painterly palette typical of early 20th-century lithography. It artfully blends military prestige with the reliability of Peugeot’s pioneering motorcycling heritage.
