Description: This is a phenomenal antique print that is about 100 years old. It depicts the Manufacture Française d'Armes et Cycles store in Paris. This was a famous firearms and bicycle manufacturer at the turn of the century. In 1911 the company was renamed Manufrance, It is from an extremely RARE and very expensive portfolio of prints produced by a French bicycle and firearms company for their clients in 1909. The illustration is by the artist Ruckert. The print is high quality and single-sided (blank back). It has lovely curved corners and a gray edging around the picture. It has a tissue overlay on which a lengthy text (in French) describes the company and the building. About the Manufacture Française d'Armes et Cycles: In 1885, Pierre-Etienne Mimard and Pierre Blachon create Manufacture and invent the “trade catalogue” which consists in presenting the weapons marketed by the company and of the articles for hunter, in order to sell them by correspondence. They make transfer French Manufacture from weapons and cycles to the Fauriel course in 1894 in order to join together workshops and offices. The page is approx. 7.25x11.25 inches and the actual image size (without margins) is approx. 4.5x7.5 inches, plus an inch of the gray edging.. This is NOT a recent copy or modern reproduction, but a GENUINE item from that era. It would look wonderful framed in a home, office or child's room. All prints are delivered in an archival sleeve and packed flat with heavy cardboard or rolled in a sturdy tube.
