The Youth's Companion 1896. 1896. - A 16-1/4 inch high by 11-1/4 inch wide pictorial advertisement for Victoria Bicycles illustrated and designed by Will Bradley. A dreamy 14 inch high by 9 inch wide Art Nouveau illustration printed in blue on a gray background depicts a woman, draped in a flowing gown, standing with a bicycle next to tall flowers and trees within a floral frame. "Victor" and "Victoria" are printed within the floral borders at right and left of the image with "Bicycles / Overman Wheel Co. / Boston, New York, Detroit, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland Ore." framing the top and bottom. This rare advertisement by Will Bradley was published on page "iv" of Volume VII, No. 8 of "The Youth's Companion", dated February 20, 1896. Several black & white pictorial ads decorate the verso (page "iii" of the periodical). A couple of short tears near the corners of the top edge are repaired with clear archival document tape from the verso. The edges of the print are slightly darkened from having once been framed. An attractive art nouveau print. [Ref: "Will H. Bradley: His Work. A Bibliographical Guide" by Anthony Bambace, pages 152-153]. Very good .
