Our Posters provide a glimpse of an era when the bicycle was the king of transportation and on the cutting edge of technology.
These posters depict famous races and racers, bicycle brands and component manufactures.
Beautiful women in elegant clothes are often part of the advertising message of these posters. This is because the manufacturers were selling freedom to women in the suffragette era at the turn of the century as much as they were selling bicycles.
Frederick Winthrop Ramsdell (1865–1915) was an American artist, best known for his iconic poster advertising American Crescent Cycles. Ramsdell was from Manistee, Michigan and studied at the Art Students League of New York under James Carroll Beckwith and later in Paris under R. Collin. His work was shown at the Paris Salon between 1891 and 1898. He spent some years in France and Italy before returning to the States
