Well....... I havnt seen it before...

But from the little French I know I can decipher a few things...
Its talking about a cricket match between France and England held [or to be held] on August 19 and 20.
Vélodrome de Vincennes was the stadium where the 1900 Olympics were held and its also the finsih line for Tour de France(dont think thats related)......
And I am not sure if Cricket has ever been part of Olympics... Help me....

Boy u r magnificent....N so is ur French...
Incidentally it is the only time Cricket has been played in the Olympics. Holland and Belgium were the other two teams scheduled to play. But they forfeited causing the only match of olympic history between england and france,which england won convincingly. This is the only poster to have been printed for the match.
Keep it up man.
