Cycles Poelaert , Reynolds 531SL tubing
Reymond Poelaert was a long-time employee (apprentice at the beginning) of René Herse and the mechanic of Lili Herse. He was the one who engraved the Herse cranks and also occasionally swung the blowtorch when René Herse was overloaded with work. . Later he built a few frames under his own name. The Cycles Poelaert lettering is hand painted, maybe the production was so small that it was not worthwhile to have own decals made.
Unfortunately there is hardly anything about him on the net, in this blog I found the above info.
