Lefévre Alexandre – (absence of proof)

In 1896 the Mayor of Saint-Denis wrote a certificate to Estelle Cardinet, born Lefebvre living San-José. He gives her a statement made by Lapierre Ernest who certifies that a velocipede pedal that she had in her possession was well made by his father Alexander in 1843. This machine then passed to the San José Museum and is still exposed. Several articles have been products on this very interesting velocipede: The Whellmen (# 8, p.2 to p.10), The Cycle History (September 25-28, 2011, p.20) and The Era of bike fair in France edited by the musée VéloMoto Domazan (30), p.175 to p.179), the reader can refer to it. We have no evidence today of he authenticity of this velocipede.

Turner R.B. & Cie – manufactured by Coventry Machinist Co. in Coventry, Great Britain for market in Paris, France

Turner & Cie was founded to sell velocipedes on 1869 March 17th. Based in Paris, it had three shareholders: Rowley Benbow Turner, Antonie Cuissard (draughtsman) and M.L. Pascaud – the owner and director of the Luxembourg and Marais gymnasiums in Paris. They had their machines built by Coventry Sewing Machine Co., which became the Coventry Machinists Co. om 1869 May 10th and were offered in Paris under name VELOCIPÉDES AMÉRICAINS. The velocipedes are thus a Fraench make but manufactured in England. It is not so clear that Turner et Cie were ever manufacturers.
