The Game-Changing Bicycle Prototype
In this photograph from 1946, Benjamin Bowden proudly shows off a prototype for what would soon become the first version of the modern day bicycle. It would take some time for it to be manufactured, however. Production began in the 1960s, and over 500 bicycles were made in the first run. If you happened to have one of these original bicycles in your possession today, which would have set you back less than $100 dollars then, you’d be sitting on a treasure worth fifteen times that.

JFK The Father
Caroline Kennedy, pictured here as a three-year-old when her father became the president of the USA for the first time, could never have imagined then that she would be growing up without having him in her life. This intimate photograph is one of few memories showing JFK in his role at home as a father. Shortly after his assassination, Jackie Kennedy moved to the Upper East Side with both her kids in a bid to start over.
