Cristall: A vintage head badge featuring an image of a figure with a trident (possibly Neptune).
Royal Rapid: An elegantly enamelled badge with a running athlete or cyclist.
Tigre: A long, stylized French or Belgian head badge with the brand name written vertically.

Bottom row:
Teron: A distinctive Art Deco-style head badge, often associated with Belgian or French frame makers.
Rijwielfabriek Gazelle (Dieren): The iconic and very recognizable Dutch head badge from Gazelle of Dieren, with the leaping gazelle in the wheel.
The Raleigh (Nottingham, England): The world-famous logo of the historic British bicycle manufacturer Raleigh, recognizable by the heron atop the shield.
