Lot 456
A circa 1870 Vélocipède.
This bicycle has green-painted wheels, 36-inch driving and 30-inch rear, black-painted iron frame with conventional brake mechanism intact, operated by twisting 26-inch handlebars with later wooden grips, hock rests, a good and original seat pan, 8-inch cranks and triangular pedals. The wheels are sound, certainly useable, and the iron tyring is tight and probably original.
