Browsing around the internet, trying to take my mind off the fact that I haven’t been able to ride yet because of the damn snow on the roads, I found this amazing collection of ads from motorcycle magazines in the early eighties. This one is a Hein Gericke ad showing the biker image we’re all trying so hard to accomplish. You know’ mullet, tanned, big mustache, dressed in leather, holding a falcon – the perfect image. Judging from the amount of smoking remedies advertised, I guess there weren’t that many law biding white collar workers in the motorcycle community, back when “Cooper Black” (a type face) still roamed the earth.
