EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating piece of transportation history - the Fan-Motor Bicycle designed by E J Pennington in Racine, Wisconsin. Dating back to the late 19th century, this innovative vehicle was featured in The Horseless Age, a journal dedicated to the emerging motor vehicle industry.
The image showcases the unique design of the Fan-Motor Bicycle, with its fan-like wheels and motor attached to the frame. It serves as a reminder of how early inventors were experimenting with different forms of propulsion for bicycles before gasoline-powered engines became more prevalent.
The intricate details captured in this photograph offer a glimpse into the technological advancements of the time and highlight the creativity and ingenuity of individuals like E J Pennington who were pushing boundaries in transportation innovation.
As we look back on this historical artifact from over a century ago, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of automotive technology.
