Step back into the early days of cycling with this vintage high-wheel bicycle patent print, originally patented by George W. Marble on April 21, 1885 (Patent No. 316,047A). This beautifully detailed patent showcases the classic "penny-farthing" design, featuring a large front wheel for speed and a smaller rear wheel for stability, a common sight in the Victorian era of cycling.

High-wheel bicycles were the pioneers of modern cycling, offering a faster and more efficient ride compared to earlier models. The elevated seat position and direct pedal drive made these bikes popular among daring riders before the invention of the "safety bicycle" that led to modern designs.

Perfect for cyclists, engineers, and vintage transportation lovers, this high-quality reproduction brings a historical and mechanical charm to bike shops, home offices, and creative workspaces.
