Wright Brothers Bicycle Shop, 1937. Creator: Unknown
Wright Brothers Bicycle Shop, 1937. After a brief stint in the printing business, Orville and Wilbur Wright opened a bicycle sales and repair shop called the Wright Cycle Exchange at 1005 West Third Street in Dayton, Ohio, in 1892.

Third Street in Dayton, the Wrights assembled a frame addition where they built their first airplane
