Rare Tour De France
Scrapbooks & Memorabilia (1800s-1970)
Handmade scrapbooks, glassine envelopes filled with vintage newspaper cuttings, mathematics text books filled with handwritten notes; notebooks filled with handwritten philosophy quotes. This is the lifes passion of a French accountant, Monsieur Christian Coque of Lyon, a MEGA fan of the Tour de France who has clearly used his knowledge of maths to study and search out patterns in the annual Tour de France races. These are some very special books that I’ve personally held close for more than ten years….now it’s time for them to find a new home.
