Description
This is a fully restored image of the 1885 Bicycle Patent granted W. S. Kelly. These high wheel bicycles were known by a number of names including penny-farthing, ordinary, high-wheel and high wheeler. They were inherently hazardous to operate and dangerous for the rider, but they did ring in a new era for two wheeled transportation.
