vintage bike of the day: the albion

I didn’t know what to do with these when I first saw them. They were taking a bit of history and transferring them in the future.

Some ancient tribes feared a photograph took away a part of their souls.

Maybe for people or living things but I don’t believe that is so and these photos prove it. Postcards of a time machine say much about soul and sometimes many souls. Maybe the soul is actually preserved in a photo because we assume these are images captured in a time not very far past and we think somebody actually rides this motorized bicycle. Maybe we imagine those who did and those who built it. Is that that makes this bike seem alive, or is it simply the photo of something most of us will never touch?

Many thinks to Frank at MotArt. These were his first.
