Albatros factory motorcycle racer Benoit 1921 Gaillon racing photo photograph

Description

A superb and rare photo of Benoit sitting on his
Albatros factory
racing machine before the start of the
race at Gaillon
in
1921
.
The
Albatros
was built by one Henri Villouin of Paris in 1912. His company made mostly cycles and motorcycles, but did build a light 4-cylinder car. Their advertisement boasted of '91 wins in 92 races', but this is thought to be referring to the cycles.
This
non period
photo reflects a very interesting and historic piece of motorcycling history. Therefore it is printed in a nice large format of ca. 8" x 12" (ca. 20 x 30 cm).
Shipping costs will only be $ 7.00 regardless of how many photos you buy.   For 5 or more photos, shipping is free!
