AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Last pre-war tour which took place from June 28 to July 26. The Belgian Thys followed up after 1913 and won the event, which would be the last edition before the outbreak of the war. 5 issues of the très prestigious French sports magazine La Vie au Grand Air, richly illustrated. 824 (July 4): 1 page
825 (July 11): 3 pages
826 (July 18): 4 pages
827 (July 25): 3 pages
828 (Aug 1): 10 pages
This last issue is very rare; beyond its long pagination and its cover on the Tour de France, it is the final exemplar of the series published before the interruption of the magazine.
Very good condition for documents over 100 years old.
Some signs of use due to handling without serious damage.

Seller's Story

Collector, archivist, and sports historian for 35 years, I now keep only pieces that help better understand the history of major sporting events such as the Olympic Games or the FIFA World Cup. Selected among 24 global exhibitors, I presented at the Paris Olympic Games rare documents from 1892 to 1894 that illuminate the path of Pierre de Coubertin in the rehabilitation of the modern Games.
