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.
Charles A. Cox executed at least 10 posters for Bearings: Cycling Authority of America between 1890 and 1899. The magazine was published in the 1890’s in Chicago and catered to the fashionable interest in the bicycle. These posters were posted at newsstands and businesses to alert customers a new issue was on sale.
