James Lillywhite's Cricketers' Annual 1899

FLYING T Y R E S H . R . VELOX PRINCE OF WALES recently had the famous A-B Non-Puncturable Tyres fitted to his Cycle in place of the old-fashioned puncturing style . Immediately afterwards H.R.H. The Dukeof Connaught followed suit ; and since then wehave had as manyas 20 cycles of different makes, belong- ing toRoyalty and Nobility , at one time in our Warehouse for A-B Non- Puncturable Tyres to be fitted in place of other makes. Awell-knownCycle authority says of these Tyres :-" They are as great animprovement on any other tyre as the modern safety is upon the old boneshaker ." The 1899 Tyre is the lightest on the market , and therefore the fastest . B your special process the fabric is rendered Rot-proof , Water-proof , and practically Puncture -proof , and the Tyres have a World-wide reputation for holding the air for months at a time without re-inflating . This is owing to the excellent quality of the material used in their manufacture. Theseassertions are clinchedb ythe Most Astounding Guarantee ever given , viz.: Thatw ewill m a k e good or replace , during the Season 1899, any A-B N o n- Puncturable N O NPUNCTURABLE A BTYRES TRADE V E L O X MARK Tyre bearing our registered Trade Mark " Velox ," that shall go wrong from any cause whatever (wilful neglect or abuse excepted ).
