EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing a Covered Cycle Track in all its glory. Dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century, this antique print takes us on a journey through time, reminding us of the simpler pleasures of life. The image depicts an impressive architectural structure with a vibrant United States flag proudly waving in the background. A group of bicyclists can be seen riding along the track, their elegant attire and classic bicycles adding to the nostalgic charm. Spectators gather around, eagerly watching these pioneers of recreation as they engage in this popular sport. The postcard is adorned with English text that adds an artistic touch to the overall design. Its color prints and intricate details are testaments to both American period style and commercial art from that era. Preserved within Lake County Museum's collection, this photolithograph serves as a visual reminder of how cycling has long been cherished as both a means of transportation and leisure activity in North America. It allows us to appreciate not only the evolution of bicycle technology but also our enduring fascination with sports and outdoor pursuits. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported back to a time when life moved at a slower pace – where people found joy in simple pleasures like riding bicycles under covered tracks while basking in each other's company.
