Old Bicycles

Submitted by nickj on Tue, 12/11/2007 - 18:40.

Advertisement for Stag bicycles, $48, bicycle supplies, and rentals available at Dawson's Bicycle Depot. The "S" in the word "Stag" is very faint and almost illegible. Appeared in the PEI Agriculturalist newspaper, 22 January 1898, page 3.
This bike was made by W. E. Dawson. I got this ad out of a newspaper, the Agriculturalist, at the Public Archives.

This bike is old; it's about 100 years old. At this period in time, bikes would cost about $40.00, but a bike today costs much more.
