Boston, 1899. Unbound. Very good. This lot includes a 14-page 6.5" x 3.5" catalog with b/w illustrations, a letter on company stationery, and the envelope in which it was mailed. All are in nice shape.
The Boston Cycle Company was founded in 1897 and originally sold both new and second hand bicycles made by other manufacturers including Victor, Columbia, and Rambler, along with a variety of parts and accessories. It soon began to produce its own models, the Algonquin, Bellingham, and Number Seven. Public records and contemporary newspaper advertisements/articles suggest that the company went out of business around 1903. This catalog features men's and ladies' Algonquin models, fittings, hangers, and sprockets.
