Description from the seller
A collection of eight vintage head badges (also known as headmarks) from old bicycles to be seen. These are the metal emblems that used to be mounted on the front of the head tube of a bicycle to display the brand. Here is the overview of the recognizable brands in the image, sorted from left to right:
Top row
Commander Royal Nord: A classic Belgian brand originating from Hasselt.
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.
The Curon Cycle: A vintage, somewhat curved metal badge with a red-white-blue design.
Objects of this kind are currently highly sought after by collectors of cycling history and antique bicycles.
