Early motorcycling for your transport collection

Celebrate an interest in motoring history with this reproduction of a Simard motorcycle and sidecar advertisement dating to c. 1910. The sidecar subject offers a distinctive alternative to a solo motorcycle print, making it a thoughtful choice for a garage, study or transport-themed gallery wall. Display it individually or combine it with other advertisements exploring the early years of personal transport.

About the poster

Sidecars made it possible to share a motorcycle journey with a passenger. This Simard advertisement connects that practical idea with a period when motor travel was still developing. Its approximate date provides a starting point for a historical collection, while the named advertisement gives the print a more specific identity than a general motorcycle illustration.

Create a personal motoring corner

Imagine displaying the print beside a shelf of motoring books, with warm wooden furniture, softly textured upholstery and a treasured riding memento nearby. It can introduce a historical transport connection into an everyday room without requiring the whole space to follow a garage theme. The recorded blue, red and beige palette offers a starting point for coordinating accessories or companion prints in related tones.

A smaller format can join an established gallery arrangement, while a larger print gives the sidecar subject a more prominent place. Pairing it with the Harley-Davidson advertisement creates an early-motorcycling connection; adding bicycle posters broadens the display into different forms of personal travel. Consider your available wall space and surrounding furniture before choosing your size.

Pair it with

Continue the early-motorcycling theme with the Harley-Davidson advertisement (1912). For a broader gallery wall of vintage transport advertising, add Alphonse Mucha’s Bicycle poster (1902) and the Bicyclette Blanche Hermine poster (1926), bringing cycling companions alongside the motorcycle and sidecar.
