But do a search for "bicycle" and there a many nice vintage images including the cigarette cards like one the BVVW guys have adopted. There's a nice card of a "path racer". Can someone ID it? http://tinyurl.com/4tu2z

+++++++++++++++++ Funny thing. Last weekend I replaced the folding attic stairs, which meant I had to go up there and browse. Sure 'nuff, I stumbled on a framed set of 18 Players Bicycle cards (1939). Will bring them to Cirque (if I remember!).
