    Description

    Greetings!
    This is a super-cool photo of a bicycle club(League of American Wheelmen members, no doubt) in Milwaukee in front of the Loan And Trust Building, 2nd and Wisconsin(Grand Ave.) Great optometrist 3-d sign hanging on the left.
    Great bicycles..1890's safeties, one still clad with cushion or hard-tires, the rest have graduated to pneumatics, which were had  by serious riders the first couple of years of the 1890's.
    ==Condish==
    I would say this is a clear image, faded probably 20%, some surface marks and soiling, but most condish-issues can be seen by closely scrutinizing the close-up photos presented here. Slight bow/bend overall, as seen. Early nickel seen here for reference of scale. Larger scale than the ordinary real-photo postcard. Definitely a copy ordered by club members. Image is 7 3/4" x 4 3/4".
    ==SUMMARY==
    a great pic, and historical document of ID's rider(Otto Salchow, second from left) or Milwaukee bicycle collectors.
    ==NOTE==
    I have other listings for many cool antique bicycle photos and misc!
