Weightlifting/ Circus/ Olympic Games/ Cadine/ Aviation. Orig - Lot 202
Weightlifting/ Circus/ Olympic Games/ Cadine/ Aviation. Original poster, lithograph, canvas: "Ernest Cadine, champion du monde de force dans son exercice d'écartelement" by Gaston Girbal, 1935. An Olympic weightlifting champion like Rigoulot, Cadine de St Denis (1893-1978) was not quite as well known as Rigoulot, but he was close. Yet he, too, was a world record-holder, tore up cards and even braked planes on takeoff, as shown here by music-hall poster artist Gaston Girbal (1889-1972). 38,5x58. Traces of moisture and folds. High curiosity. Some malicious tongues have claimed that it was because he had not been in aviation but in artillery, that Ernest took a malicious pleasure in preventing planes from taking off. No, Mr Hatot, it's not St Ex, who's on the right and Mermoz on the left.
