Description
Photographic portrait of two male cyclists, ca.1890. Two men in the center wear ribbed turtleneck sweaters and darkly colored leggings with boots and bowling hats. The man on the right wears a darkly colored sweater that contrasts with the other man's lighter sweater colored. The man on the left sits on the seat of a bicycle while the man on the right seems to support his bicycle by holding a handle with his right hand and the back of the seat with his left hand. A second bicycle is visible behind the men.
Photoprint reads "Youns Muchly Wheelman. March 1st".
