Let's jump backward from 1941 to 1939. Another ad for Packard bicycles from 1939 and Fremont, Nebraska. Even if folks today– including the "experts" insist on calling classic American bicycles with front suspension as "springers" nobody did in 1939.
The ad here on the right clearly refers to "Knee-action Packard bicycle" and if you're a loyal reader of this thread, you should know that this means!
And just to show that Packard bicycles were simply sold directly out of retail stores ands NOT with Packard automobiles, take a look at this classified advertisement.
