Columbia Bicycle Pope Mfg Co Hartford CT RARE Mechanical Trade Card Info Wheel

Columbia Bicycle Pope Mfg Co Hartford CT RARE Mechanical Trade Card This card has a special Info Wheel that shows you different gear ratios when you turn it. Made of cardboard or card stock. Has an impression line under the Pope text in blue area upper left a small crease line bottom left corner and a slightly larger one in the bottom right. Most likely from people holding it to spin the wheel. Small pointed fingers direct attention to the larger and small gears or sprockets. A facsimile of a head badge from this iconic cycle maker is in the upper right. Bold text on the back stakes their authoritative claim that there are only 2 classes of bicycles Columbia and others and The Hartford is Chief among the others. Trying to give consumers a way to feel good if they could not afford the Columbia I guess. Super card and a rare one.
