First Century of 1902.


I have no idea what this means. Seen on ebay, "1902 Waukegan IL News Sun Newpaper Comic Halbert Grout Automobile Bicycle"

The description reads:

Up for auction is a vintage 1902 newspaper comic from the Waukegan News Sun in Illinois. It is a photo of H E Halbert riding a bicycle in the snow towards Waukegan. Halbert later drove a Grout Automobile to a victory in the Chicago Motor Club 1000 Mile Reliability Contest. The bottom corners of the comic are cut at an angle and the paper has yellowed from age. It is fastened to black rigid paper, similar to what you saw with photos from that era. The comic measures 3” by 4 1/4”. Winning bidder pays $3.00 for USPS shipping. I only ship to addresses in the USA and Canada. Illinois residents must pay 7.0% for sales tax. Good luck and happy bidding!
