1929 Good Humor Bicycle

Good Humor, an iconic American ice cream brand, was founded in 1920 by Harry Burt in Youngstown, Ohio. Burt was the inventor of the ice cream bar, and it was his ingenious idea to insert a wooden stick into the ice cream for easier consumption. To bring these delightful treats directly to consumers, Good Humor pioneered the use of tricycle push carts in neighborhoods, along with its famous fleet of white trucks. The tricycle carts were not just an economical and practical choice but also became a charming symbol of grassroots entrepreneurship. These mobile vendors rode through neighborhoods ringing bells to announce their arrival, making them a staple of American summer life for children and adults alike. The tricycle push carts helped Good Humor establish its brand as a household name and played a vital role in bringing the joy of ice cream to communities across the country.
