Treasures from THE VINTAGE & ANTIQUE BICYCLE COLLECTION at Lost Highways Archive & Research Library. By exclusive arrangement with The Grand Review.

Print size 24 x 16, and consciously formatted to work with a standard size store bought frame, or custom framed as you see fit.

Premium cards tucked inside tobacco and chocolate products were common currency as playthings for kids from the late 19th into the mid 20th century, developing into a serious collecting bug for adults in the United Kingdom. Imagine the passion lavished by Americans on baseball cards, and spread that around to sets of cards featuring any number of topics.

Less common in the United States, there were still a number of tobacco company cards given away here. This is a delightful example from The American Tobacco Company’s Bicycle & Trick Riders premium card series, early 1890s. I long for the discovery of disintegrating yet still salvageable film footage from Edison or Lumiere or Philadelphia's own Siegmund Lubin featuring this lively gal, dressed in what were considered scandalous tights, showing what damned near magical acrobatics she'd worked out on this early 'safety' bike... just post penny farthing style.

A NOTE ON OUR PROCESS, OUR CHOICES AND THE QUALITY OF THE GRAPHIC CRAFTSMANSHIP THAT GOES INTO OUR PRINTS.

Every print we deem exciting enough to present to the public via our Etsy store or available here at our studio has gone through a number of steps. The first of those is always discovering and falling in love with an obscure image, always an original that we can hold in our hands. That image is speaking to us, sometime screaming “Don’t leave me here. See what I am, what I was, what I can be, what I SHOULD be!”

There is a real sense of excitement involved, and a great many smiles and knowing grins when we make that deal and bring that ancient print, that battered photo, that scrap of ephemera that contains some scrap of genius from an unknown commercial artist home with us, knowing already how we mean to approach its restoration.

There is the heady promise of a further hunt just as real as what drags a weekend fisherman out of bed at 3AM to work a favorite brook as we start our research, looking for that great backstory, and both ready and willing to tumble down as many rabbit holes as are revealed to us to get that story.

Then there is a meticulous digital restoration that is as often as much fun as riding a vintage Moto Guzzi on a winding coastal road. I don’t care if that sounds crazy, it really is like jumping in the saddle! So many choices, so many chances to take to subtly or spectacularly give new life to otherwise permanently obscure images.

This dedication and the ongoing rush of joy in the accomplishment of it, and the opportunity to share the results in our studio and here on Etsy, is the fire of passion that keeps these engines roaring. We make every effort to ensure our customers are not just satisfied but thrilled, and we happily stand 100% behind our work.

Cut too small - Shrinkage!
Size: 3X-Large, Color: Chill
This Costa Del Mar shirt is cut way too small and then shrinks from there. Could not wear after one wash. I’m 6’4” @ 215 and normally wear XL or sometimes XXL. This XXL was really too small from the jump and then shrunk down so much I can’t even wear it. If you just have to get it, I’d order 2 sizes up. Not the quality I’m accustomed to in Costa products.

Perfect Fit!
Size: Medium, Color: Dark Heather, Size: Medium, Color: Dark Heather
My daughter got the Costa T-shirt for her boyfriend, and he absolutely loves it! The fabric is super soft, lightweight, and breathable—perfect for everyday wear or a day out on the water. The fit is just right, and the design looks even better in person. Great quality and a solid pick for any Costa fan!
