Beautiful bicycle! Being a klutz as I am, though, the ornament would scare me that I would fall onto it as I nearly did on my 1948 Henney-Packard’s.


Hello and thanks much for the kind words. The vintage bicycles in my collection of this caliber just are not ones I would ride any more. It is tough enough to get them all together (with the correct parts) and restored– much less to ride them. And with the values where they have risen these days? Suicide to think of riding these vintage bicycles when one can get a rider at Wal-world for less than $100 bucks, with no worries about falling and breaking pieces either of yourself or a precious collectable like one of these!
