A couple non-cycling friends gave this to me today, a belated birthday gift:

I was totally delighted. Now to choose a picture to put in it...

Tandems appear in unusual places as a motif. The college sports fan can get NCAA tandem sports figurines (http://www.bizrate.com/ncaa-shop/figurines-bobbleheads-big-tall/).

Tandems even made it into the political arena last year . . .
There are some unique tandem-type gifts out there.
We have a metal silhouette of a tandem couple (circa 1890s with female pilot/male stoker) on our at-the-curb mailbox with the message: 'We love . . . to tandem'. Gave it to Kay as a Valentine Day gift about 20 years ago.
Also a 'welcome' ceramic oval sign with a tandem duo at the entrance to our atrium.
We also have a couple miniature tandems; one made out of glass and one that can be used as a decorative pin in which the wheels actualy spin, the headset and cranks turn. Even has 36 spoke wheels, all hand-made out of brass.
Pedal on TWOgether!

That looks like a Rebour. If it is that's a pretty sweet card there.
