Description
POIRIER ADULT TRICYCLE – circa 1940 The Poirier adult tricycle is of particular interest due to its design and practical use. Its origins date back to the 1920s, when the company was known as Établissements G. Poirier and was based in Fondettes in Indre-et-Loire. This black-painted steel model retains its original decal and has undergone a period restoration. However, a precise date cannot be established at this stage. A more recent manufacture cannot be ruled out, as this type of vehicle continued to be produced and sold well beyond this period, particularly in Asia and the Netherlands. The various visible components, notably the brake calipers, handles and wheels fitted with drum brakes, appear relatively recent compared with earlier models. These features call for caution regarding the age and period authenticity of this tricycle. A more precise identification would require an examination of the markings, construction details and any serial numbers. Sold as is. The appeal of this example lies primarily in its unusual nature and its practical purpose. It may appeal to a vintage bicycle enthusiast or a collector seeking an original vehicle, possibly for restoration or display. Before use, the condition of the frame, wheels, steering and braking system should be checked. Tricycle sold and presented as is.
