Some interesting bicycles from the Keith Pariani Collection
1868 American boneshaker animal motif head
The oldest bike he owns dates back to 1868, which was about seven years before people began to call these contraptions “bicycles.” “It’s got a cast-iron eagle head on the front of it, which is very, very unusual for an American bike,” Pariani explained. “There are only two American bikes that had some type of animal motif. The Europeans did it quite a lot.”
