Poster, Samuel Cody, Velodrome de la Seine, Paris
EARLY AVIATION PIONEERS - THE SAMUEL CODY ARCHIVE: S. F. Cody Wild West Show (c.1893). Known as a showman, sharpshooter, horseman, aviator and aircraft designer, Samuel Franklin Cody held a wide range of interests and talents that led him from the typical life of an Iowa farm boy to a much loved figure of British aeronautics history. As one of the main attractions during his Wild West Show?s European tour, Cody cashed in on the bicycle craze of the 1890s with a series of races pitting him and his horsemanship against famous cyclists. In this particular instance, Cody faced off against the tandem team of Fournier and Gaby, who won the gruelling six-hour, 178 kilometre race against Cody by a good five kilometres at the popular cycling arena Velodrome de la Seine in Paris. Date: circa 1893

EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph captures the spirit of Samuel Franklin Cody, a remarkable figure in early aviation history, during his European tour with the S.F. Cody Wild West Show in circa 1893. Known for his diverse talents as a showman, sharpshooter, horseman, and aviator, Cody capitalized on the bicycle craze of the 1890s by organizing a series of races pitting his horsemanship against renowned cyclists. In this photograph, Cody is seen competing against the formidable tandem team of Fournier and Gaby at the Velodrome de la Seine in Paris. The grueling six-hour, 178-kilometer race proved to be a challenge, with the cycling duo ultimately winning by a significant five kilometers. Cody, a beloved figure in British aeronautics history, showcased his horseback speed and entertainment value to large crowds, blending the excitement of the Wild West with the emerging sport of cycling. This photograph is a testament to Cody's versatility and the unique blend of horsepower and human endurance that characterized the era." (Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd. from Mary Evans Prints Online)
