Cycling memorabilia and Artworks seem to be all over the auction sites and Etsy etc, but very little (if any) is discussed or raved about on RB. I'm mad for cycling posters, brochures and old workshop illustrations, and have been collecting them for about twenty years.

Is it just not that interesting to folks?

Here's one of my favourites by Canadian artist Ryan Heshka

They're great. You get the period style of illustration in so many. Advertisements are good too.

This is another example of Saddle manufacturer meets iconic design house 'Lobster'. Nice little video of them designing and finishing a Supercorsa. I saw one of these go for equivalent $1800 on a Japanese forum in June. I guess it's all down to rarity and the cache of the designer. Lots of bucks tho for a saddle....
