dandy horses (velocipedes, passenger vehicles, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Wooden two-wheeled vehicles with steering mechanisms; propelled by the rider pushing from the ground with each foot. The first two-wheeled rider-propelled machine was the draisienne, invented by Baron Karl von Drais de Sauerbrun of Germany, in 1817. Denis Johnson of London purchased a draisienne and patented his model as a “pedestrian curricle.” Many buyers were members of the nobility, and caricaturists called the devices “dandy horses.”
