Description:
The American Bicycle By Jay Pridmore & Jim Hurd. This first ever color history of the American bicycle chronicles more than 130 years of bicycles, from the early high-wheelers of the late 1800s to today's high-tech, lightweight mountain and race bikes. Whether mighty or obscure, all the great American bikes and their stories are here, including Schwinn, Huffy, Columbia, Monark, Elgin, Shelby, Roadmaster, and many more. More than 200 illustrations including brochures, historical photos, drawings, and dozens of specially commissioned studio photographs accompany the thoroughly researched and entertaining text. Highlights profile the uniquely "American" designs and the bicycle's shift from transportation to recreation. Superb! Hdbd., 10 1-2"x10 1-2", 192 pgs., 96 b&w ill., 132 color.
