EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print from 1950, we see Mr James Goodwin of Sevenoaks proudly posing with his prized possession - a Singer tandem tricycle dating back to 1880. Having journeyed all the way from London to the Singers museum, Mr Goodwin's passion for bicycles and Victorian-era transport is evident. Dressed impeccably in a tailored suit, Mr Goodwin stands on the right side of the photograph, exuding an air of sophistication and adventure. His beaming smile reflects both pride in his unique acquisition and excitement for sharing it with others. The image not only showcases an unusual mode of transportation but also highlights the enduring power of friendship. Standing beside him is another gentleman whose identity remains unknown. However, their camaraderie is palpable as they stand shoulder-to-shoulder, united by their shared love for these fascinating tricycles. This photo offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when travel was slower-paced yet filled with wonder and curiosity. It transports us back to England in the 1880s when such tricycles were considered cutting-edge technology. Preserved within this snapshot lies not just a piece of history but also memories that evoke nostalgia for simpler times. As we admire this remarkable relic from the past, let us appreciate how it represents more than just a means of transport; it symbolizes human ingenuity and our unyielding desire to explore.
