Gallery›Digital Commonwealth — Boston Public Library›Tree Climbing Cycle. The inventor Kutt of Frankfurt has just invented a tree climbing bicycle, which can be used for trees of any height. It climbs with the help of a caterpillar worked by a lever, which the rider works backwards and forwards when ascending. It is expected to prove very useful for workers who attend to trees, as the man can climb to any height and then fix the machine while working. The machine does not injure the bark of the tree. Photo shows: The tree climbing cycle in use.
