Old pic identification

ajoten

Saw this nice print in a bar in France... does anyone know where it is or who it might be? I'm hoping it's a La Perle rider from the 50s as I have a replica jersey

Looks like the Col d'Izoard?

Charly Gaul? http://www.faz.net/s/Rub9CD731D06F17450CB39BE001000DD173/Doc~ED65EC62EB1494F5B880C50D96DC426C4~ATpl~Ecommon~SMed.html#1E4A197402D64CC0BE3CACCEDE9D7D8A

Agreed.

Not sure who the rider is, looks too well turned out to be Gaul.

A print of this photo came with Pro Cycling's Tour Guide either this year or last, so I've got it knocking around at home somewhere. Others will too.

So, I'll be able to identify it in full this evening, but others will probably beat me to it.

It's Gaul

I'm after one of Coppi going around a bend on a mountain looking up (I think it had a camera car in the background but could be wrong) think it's 1952 - it came as a poster in a mag but I missed it years ago

You needed to delete the question mark from the end of the url, otherwise it doesn't get recognised as an image.
