Business Bicycles
AND...
Bicycle Business.
Buying a bicycle now is usually a business proposition, because you need one in your business. Nothing can take it's place. If you need a wheel you should buy a good one. "Cheap Skates" won't do. they have been tried.
Crescents, Ramblers, Racycles, nationals and a few others
Have stood the test for fifteen years. We offer them to you today at reasonable prices. Remember Racycles are different from bicycles.

Excelsior motorcycles are good winners. Did you notice that? Olinger & Warvel sell them.
Charles Olinger and Jonas Warvel had the first automobile (Ford) dealership, at 114 E. Main.
In 1912 the Olinger and Warvel Ford dealership moved from their Main St. location to 205-207 Walnut Street, just North of where the Post Office is now located.
