We restore and reproduce forgotten masterworks of graphic design on museum-grade paper — so they can live on your walls instead of in an archive.
The Story Behind the Print
Pierre Lallement’s U.S. Patent 59,915, granted November 20, 1866, records Pierre Lallement’s pedal-driven velocipede, with cranks applied to the front wheel and a shaped frame connecting rider, steering, and running gear.
The bicycle elevation, steering details, and pedal mechanism create an airy foundational cycling portrait. This restored edition preserves the original Patent Office arrangement in crisp black linework on cool, timeworn rag paper within the collection’s restrained black double rule.
Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks. A natural piece for offices, libraries, workshops, and collections of invention and industrial design.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece—the print will always be richer.
