c1896 cabinet photo of bicycle race broadside…Show your vintage photos of broadsides!
Broadside posters that advertise athletic events are one of my favorite areas of collecting. Rarely do I see period photos showing them hung up actually in use ….when I do it’s exciting…I picked this one up a couple weeks ago on eBay for the whopping price of $16.00 plus $4.00 shipping…Sure would like to come across a bicycle race broadside like that sometime…
I looked into the info on the broadside a little and found a NY times reference on the race…Also the name Sanger is on the broadside…W.C. Sanger was apparently a big name racer…I found quite a few references to him on the net..
