Raleigh All-Steel GirlFrom the days when bikes still sported some iron parts, Raleigh advertised its "All-Steel Bicycles" with this spirited lassie riding in an aero tuck on her roadster--in a dress! An icon for today as well....
Peugeot LionThis 1930s ad shows Peugeot's iconic lion proudly holding an archetypal city bike in its jaws. Stunning graphic design and typography, and a beautiful bike as well!
Fixing the City T-ShirtStark black-and-white skyline with a fixed-gear cog rising behind it, and the legend, "Fixing the City." Let 'em know you're not only having fun but saving the world! From an original photo by BF editor Rick Risemberg. (Image size on shirt is 10" x 4".)
Ride a Bike! T-ShirtA boy, a dog, and a bicycle...nostalgic 1930s image with a message for the millenia! For lighter colors only.
Velo Love T-ShirtBeautiful graphic by Chuck Schmidt shouts it out for all to know! Forceful yet understated--just like bicycling.
This has been a real favorite with our customers!
Old-School Fixed (Schwinn) T-ShirtBeautiful image of a Schwinn "Superior Racer" track bike from their 1939 catalogue. Elegant pen-and-ink drawing with the caption "Old-School Fixed" underneath.

Old-School Fixed (Lewis) T-ShirtHandsome drawing of a Lewis Lightweights fixed-gear country bike from their 1939 catalogue.
