This question probably belongs on another list, but I don't know how to find such a list. Some 60-70 years ago in the Chicago area, we children used to have a kind of "big wheel" like low slung cycle. Instead of peddling it, we would push back and forth on a kind of lever. What were these cycles called? My recollection is that they had a two-part name. Thanks and apologies for the off topic post. Bart

All of these things are grist for the genealogy list, little queries like this are a reminder our families had different toys and and goodies we should be looking for!
