Penny Farthing

I started this for one of the AnnaLifts but wasn't able to get it done in time. No matter.

The penny farthing has an interesting history. A Frenchman invented it I think, back in the 1860a. They required a mounting step and a running start which effectively excluded women who of course wore long dresses in those days. The only way to stop was to jump off!
