Gyro CycleMade by Tri-ang (Lines Brothers) in England in the 1930s.
The Gyro Cycle is made of celluloid, pressed steel and printed tinplate. It measures nearly 8" (200mm) long and comprises a celluloid cyclist astride a pressed steel bicycle with printed tin wheels. The toy works on the same principle as a gyroscope so that, when a string is wound round the mechanism on the side of the front wheel and pulled sharply, the cyclist will pedal furiously forward until it runs out of momentum and topples over. |
