Pamphlets all in original wrappers. Several with minor toning occasional chipping creasing or small tears calendar partially perished. The majority very good to fine.

A substantial and colorful collection of early catalogues and pamphlets presenting not only comprehensive listings of bicycles components and accessories but also tips on how to live modern life more fully thanks to ongoing advances in cycling technology. The English Rover Safety Bicycle considered the first modern bicycle a rear-wheel-drive chain-driven cycle with two similarly-sized wheels appeared on the market in 1885-86 and set off a worldwide bicycle craze. By the early 1900s more than 1 billion bicycles were on the roads.
