Here's yet another Packard (influenced) bicycle item.
Get a look at the slogan on this original late 1930s bicycle kickstand-sound familiar? Side kickstands were just coming into vogue then to replace clumsier rear stands. This is an original ad primarily aimed at bicycle dealers and manufacturers.
By the way, the bicycle shown is an Iver Johnson...one of the pricier, premium grade bicycles of the classic era. Yes, made by the company that made firearms of the same name.
