EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this advertisement from the 1880s, showcasing an array of bicycles and tricycles from the esteemed Bicycling, Cricket and Athletic Outfitters, run by James Lillywhite and Frowd & Co. This advertisement, published around 1883, invites readers to explore the latest innovations in transportation, with a focus on the Penny Farthing, a popular bicycle design of the late Victorian era. The image, set against the backdrop of bustling English and Welsh roads, depicts the Penny Farthing, a high-wheel bicycle, in various stages of use. Riders, dressed in fashionable attire of the time, gracefully navigate the Newington Causeway, Borough Road, Charing Cross, and other prominent London streets. The Penny Farthing's large front wheel and smaller rear wheel offered a smoother ride and greater speed compared to earlier designs, making it a desirable mode of transport for the adventurous and health-conscious. Besides the Penny Farthing, the advertisement also highlights tricycles, another popular choice for those seeking a more stable and comfortable ride. The advertisement's text encourages potential customers to visit the Bicycling, Cricket and Athletic Outfitters' store in London to explore their extensive collection of bicycles and tricycles, promising an unparalleled shopping experience. This advertisement is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the excitement and innovation surrounding the emergence of bicycles as a popular mode of transport during the late Victorian era. With its striking visuals and intriguing text, this advertisement is a must-have for history enthusiasts, transport aficionados, and anyone interested in the evolution of cycling culture.
