E. C. Stearns Bicycle Agency was established in 1893 by industrialist Edward C. Stearns, who began business as a hardware manufacturer and branched out into bicycle production from 1893 through 1899.[1]
All Stearns bicycles were called "Yellow Fellows" because of their yellow-orange color.[2] They were manufactured at Stearns' plants in Syracuse, NY.
