Left to right, rows 1, 2, and 3.
Coppi—Fausto, the biggest presence in all of Italian cycling. Unknown origin, but a few years back someone claiming extensive Coppi image expertise told me they had never seen this one.

Still Life—a soothing assemblage of old time tools and bits, described here.
Thank You—image by Jennifer Jerde for Wheelsmith about 1993.
True Hand—image of my hand by Max Ralph for a bike mechanics group in 2018.
Mechanic Angel—from a 1997 USA Cycling annual report.
