The Velocipede Mania — What It May Come To!

Humorous engraved image showing a street scene crowded with people riding bicycles. In the background are businesses identified as J. Shanks Livery Stable, which appears to be in disrepair and which has a "to let" sign on the door. Next door is J. Shanks Horse Meat Market, and to the left of that is a velocipede manufactory and riding school. A man is exiting the riding school with his arm in a sling. |
