What a blast from the saddled past, cycle streamers! Yes! I had these on my bike, catching the wind from the handlebars as I zoomed down the streets in the Sixties. This is the first packet I've seen since. Unsure how mine were bought, maybe loose from a rack in a cycle shop.
Did you have streamers on your pushbike?
PS.
Reader MJ from Soathcoast Base has sent in a pic of the classic tassels he still has on his pushbike!
I love that spacey header card! No actual relation to the item, but such a sign of the times...
ReplyDeleteI suppose anything that went fast in the Sixties like bikes were linked to rockets and space. A manned mission to Mars might bring back that universal zing in society.
ReplyDeleteYeh, that great header has "New Painting Idea!" written all over it!
