EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the history of cycling - the invention of the first pneumatic-tyred bicycle. The colourful lithograph, created by an English School artist in the 20th century, showcases this revolutionary innovation that forever changed the way people rode bikes.
Published as part of a set of cigarette cards on cycling by John Player & Sons in 1939, this image brings to life the excitement and thrill of riding a bicycle with pneumatic tires for the first time. The vibrant colours and intricate details make it clear that cycling has always been more than just a mode of transportation - it is a sport, a passion, and a way of life.
As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded of how far bicycles have come since their humble beginnings as dandy horses. From simple wooden contraptions to sleek modern machines, bicycles have evolved over time but have always remained at the forefront of human ingenuity and innovation.
So take a moment to appreciate this beautiful piece of cycling history and let it inspire you to hop on your own bike and experience the joy and freedom that comes with riding through life on two wheels.
