This poster was produced in 1953 commomorating coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The bicycle illustrated is a ladies sport model with internal hub gears, fenders and a large touring bag. The dimensions are 23 x 17 inches. A little history; Leo Sr. (Howie`s dad) became the west coast exclusive distributor of Hercules bicycles in the mid 1950`s during the boom for lightweight bikes including derailleur geared models. AMF (American Machine and Foundry) was the exclusive USA agent for the brand. Len Wilson was president of AMF and Joe Turkel was president of the Hercules division. WCCSC distributed many models of Hercules to the dealers on the western states.
