EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph from the 1890s showcases a vintage Columbia Bicycle advertisement, capturing the essence of American cycling history. The artwork, created by an anonymous artist from the 19th century, is now part of the esteemed collection at the New-York Historical Society in the USA. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this print transport us back to a time when bicycles were not just a means of transportation but also symbols of freedom and adventure. The ad proudly displays the iconic high wheel bicycle, commonly known as a penny farthing, which was manufactured by The Pope Manufacturing Co. based in Boston, Massachusetts. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are reminded of an era where riding these magnificent machines brought joy and excitement to people's lives. It serves as a testament to America's love affair with bicycles and their significant role in shaping our nation's culture. Whether it be for leisurely rides through picturesque parks or daring adventures on city streets, this advertisement encapsulates the spirit of early American cycling. As we admire this piece today, let us appreciate how far we have come while cherishing our rich heritage that continues to inspire cyclists around the world.
