Cycling/ Tour/ Jacques Goddet Lot of 20 items about Jacques GODDET (1905-2000), Desgrange's spiritual son, including: - L'Equipe, two 4-page yellow specials: "La fièvre jaune, 70 ans de Maillot Jaune" (July 19, 1989) / "Les 50 Tours de Jacques Goddet" (June 30, 1985) - Programme du 1er prix Jacques Goddet (2004) - 14 large-format press prints (21x29), showing him writing "à chaud", at his desk, receiving visitors, on the phone on the Tour, with Guimard, or Merckx, or Bahamontes, phoning from the flagship car - Book "La formidable aventure du Fondateur de L'Equipe et directeur du Tour de France" by Thomas Brochut-Goddet, told by his grandson, 122 p., 2022 - 3 press photos, at the door with Altig, at the Parc in 1963, with Anquetil, who doesn't see the outstretched hand, and in 1973, a reprint of his victory 40 years earlier in Paris-Garnes - Postcard of his stele at Tourmalet, 2001 - Beautiful portrait in front of the new Palais des Sports, of which he was the patron (22.5x15). Jacques Goddet was born on June 21, like Platini. He was the summer of "L'Auto" and the Tour when, in 1936, he took over from the ailing Desgrange on the Tour, then the relauncher of the Tour in 1947 after creating "L'Equipe", an extension of "L'Auto" in 1946. Wearing his colonial helmet (a fine color photo), he was a boss with an inimitable style, both on the roads of the Tour and at the newspaper's head office at 10 rue du Fbg Montmartre. His pen made him sign lyrical, well-informed editorials on the Tour, attend all the major sporting events, give impetus and create. An iron fist in a velvet glove? Perhaps. His own work remains considerable, and under his impetus and that of his right-hand men, the newspaper "L'Equipe" acquired a worldwide reputation that it didn't quite have with "L'Auto", outside cycling (Marchand, Chany, Baker d'Isy, Augendre, Bobet, Couedel, Leblanc, Brunel, Bouvet), track and field (Gaston Meyer, Robert Parienté, Marcel Hansenne), motor racing (Faroux, Rives), rugby (Garcia, Lalanne), soccer (Hanot, Ferran, Rethacker, Urbini, Ernault), and so on. L'Equipe became "the Bible of sport", an authority and a legend, a shared passion; Blondin, Déro, Elie Wermelinger, and dozens of other right-hand men and women also worked from the bottom up to achieve this success.
