Free Vintage Image: Bicycle Advertisement/Bike.

Hello!

With the weekend here and such beautiful weather

(at least in our area),

it will be very tempting not to hop on the bike and take a ride with my daughter.

She's always game for a bike ride...

always asking me to join her for one.

It is so enjoyable, but the apples are incredible on our tree this year,

and I already have a crate in the kitchen waiting for me to cut up and put in the dehydrator.

Still, I think a bike ride is going to win out sometime this weekend.

I found the above advertisement in the back of an old magazine from the later 1800's.

Here it is cleaned up in black and white and...

 the antiqued version.

I am posting a blue version as well,

because my daughter picked out this color for me to made a project for her room.

Can you guess what it is for?

I'll try to finish it soon to show you.

Here is a cropped image of just the bicycle.

Finally, an antiqued bike, too.

Have you been on a bike ride lately.

It does something to the heart,

I mean, beside the exercise part of it.

It just makes one feel a bit like a kid again,

don't you think?

Thanks for stopping by and have a memorable weekend.

Vintage Image of a Couple on Bicycles and Another of Children Playing Outdoors.

The warmth in the air has sent us into the shed to pull out our bicycles.

I found this fun image in The Delineator, a woman's magazine from the late 1800's.

I cleaned up the image and made this black and white one...

as well as a brown and white one.

 

The funny thing is that this was in the advertisements in the back of the magazine.

Can you guess what this was an advertisement for?  I certainly couldn't,

but it gave me a chuckle when I read it.

I have to admit, a Ypsilanti Union Suit is quite a name.

I made a black and white version of the advertisement itself,

just for fun.

 I thought I would slip in one sweet scene of children enjoying the outdoors as well.

 Here is the original, followed by a cleaned up black and white as well as a brown and white version.

These images are free for you to use as you would like.

Do you know how to use these?

  I will share with you how I use images on Microsoft Word later this weekend.

Until then, 

thanks for stopping in, and have a productive and peaceful weekend.
