LOT 05 1890s ‘THE CYCLIST’ HANDLEBAR-MOUNTED MATCH SAFE / ASHTRAY

Starting bid: £700.00

1890s ‘The Cyclist’ handlebar-mounted match safe ashtray 

2″ x 2″ x 1.5″

Smoking and cycling were equally popular hobbies in the 1880s and 1890s, and this very rare accessory of the time combined both. Apart from an identical one I sold last year you are unlikely to come across another.
