This is a vintage illustration of a unique bicycle design, patented in 1869. It features a large, oval-shaped frame with four large wheels, one at each corner. Two people are depicted riding the bicycle, positioned opposite each other. Each rider has a seat, handlebars, and pedals connected to the wheels. The frame is constructed of curved lines and appears to be made of metal. The wheels have spokes and are connected to the frame. The riders are dressed in period clothing, including hats, jackets, and trousers. The bicycle is shown on a textured ground, suggesting a road or path. Below the illustration, there is text identifying the inventors as 'Sturdy & Young, of Providence, R.I.' and the patent number 'No. 89,700' with the date 'Patented May 4, 1869'. The style of the illustration is reminiscent of patent drawings from the 19th century, with detailed lines and a focus on the mechanical aspects of the invention.
