Figure 1.--Leo Kraft was a photographer in Ohio during the early-20th century. He was a very talented amateur that left a wonderful collection of photogaphs depicting contemporary life in small-town Ohio. Here we see Kraft's son and bike. Note the flat cap, knickers, amd long black stockings. The only suggestiin that he has dressed up is the scarfe-like tie. This was often worn with sports collars. We would guess the photograph was taken in the late-1920s.
