Daniel Rebour - Illustrator. Who's your favourite cycling illustrator/Cartoonist?

There's a few Japanese coffee table books feature Rebour drawings, but nothing definitive. I remember Blackbirds.org having quite a few pages dedicated to him. Oh, and a certain Ukrainian outfit is making good on eBay with A2 and A1 enlargements of his Campagnolo group set posters. Such is life!
And of course you know my Daniel Rebour files

the source of all the scans you uploaded here. Of course it would have been super nice if you had mentioned it, as you may imagine how much time went into that archive.

And you are invited to get Jan Heine's next Bicycle Quarterly. There you'll find the first 20 page part of my article about Daniel Rebour, which will enable you to correct some of the data spread over this thread, such as the year he passed away, or a daughter he never had.

I uploaded a few scans. They're not your 'files', you seem to think you can copyright anything yeah? If Rene Herse were alive today, I doubt very much he would appreciate your business.

You're not the copyright owner, nor the original artist, you're a mere copyist, so there's no need to cite you. It's a travesty, imho that you were allowed to purchase the Herse name and user it commercially. The modern reproduction is about as far away from the art of the original maker as it's possible to be (I should know, I own three of his beautiful bicycles).

There are dozens of sources for Daniel Rebour posters (I have several originals of my own, plus dozens of copies of Le Cycle). If you are Jan Heine - all I can say is, I don't much like your bikes.

Good luck with that tyre business.

What makes you think I'm Jan Heine?
You're not the copyright owner
That is correct. But before uploading my files I asked the copyright owner for permission.
so there's no need to cite you.
Of course not. It's all a question of respect, isn't it?
