EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard print captures a moment of early 20th century humor, as a cyclist and his bent cycle are sent flying into the air after hitting someone. Created by Glasgow artist Martin Anderson, also known as Cynicus, this whimsical scene reflects the popularity of bicycling during this time period.
The year is 1903, and cycling was all the rage - with people taking to the streets on their bicycles in droves. In this comical illustration, we see the consequences of not paying attention while riding your bike. The cyclist's shocked expression as he goes airborne adds to the comedic effect of the image.
Martin Anderson's unique style shines through in this piece, showcasing his talent for capturing everyday moments with a humorous twist. His work was often featured on postcards like this one, providing entertainment for people across the country.
As part of Holt's Battlefields Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, this print offers a glimpse into a bygone era where cycling was not just a mode of transportation but also a popular pastime. So next time you hop on your bike, remember to watch out for unexpected obstacles - or you might end up like our hapless cyclist here!
