"Bicycle Ad 1890" . . . This vintage bicycle ad depicts a woman wearing a blousy and stylish garment while riding the Shirk. She is obviously outdistancing the male riders on other bicycles. The company slogan says it all, 'It cures the blues, it saves the shoes, it brings content and merriment'. From an original 19th century (1890) lithograph by Chic Ottman.
