About this work

Description

"This zine is a chronological visual history of wheeled chairs dating back to ancient times. Disabled people have existed for as long as humanity, and for as long as there have been disabled people, we have crafted tools to make our lives easier. People who are new to being wheelchair users may not know the distinguished and fascinating history of their noble steeds. Wheelchairs predate many other wheeled chairs like bikes, cars or office chairs. They may go back to the invention of the wheel itself."--From page 2.
