Is Your Horse Tricycle an Antique or a New Fake?
One of the most common questions we receive at Tricyclefetish.com deals with the authenticity and age of horse tricycles. Is my tricycle antique? A simple “NO” in reply to every question would be right about 99.9% of the time without ever seeing a picture of the tricycle. Original horse tricycles are incredibly rare, especially Victorian era horse tricycles and velocipedes. The chance of you finding one is slim, even if you are a high volume antique dealer.
So to help demystify antique vs fake horse trikes, we’ve created two pages with pictures of fake tricycles and antique tricycles, complete with what to look for to help determine if your tricycle is in fact a fake. We recommend that you visit our Fake Horse Tricycles page first and then after you’ve studied it take a look at our Genuine Antique Horse tricycles page. If you still have questions, feel free to email us and we’ll see if we can help.
