This was a project bike that I decided to part out; the fenders are already sold. The balance of the bike is still here and I will sell it complete as it is, as you see in the pictures, or I will consider selling any of the parts. The tank and spring fork are rare. Send me a message if you have...
WW-II Persons Seat Undercarriage
I have about 15-16 of the undercarriages left to sell. They are packed 16 in a wooden case with the WW-II stencile markings on the side. The wooden cases have become collectors items.
The gent (Bob) in Mass. who is producing the 1 1/8 inch clamp spacers was...
You are correct; the rail of the Military Seat Undercarriage is 1 1/8 inch instead of 1 inch. There are three options regarding the clamp assemblies: (1) many collectors have made their own clamps by flattening a civilian 1-inch clamp and having a piece welded on, (2) I heard that somebody out...
This is a new (NOS) WW-2 1940s Persons Majestic seat undercarriage with springs. It is painted the Army green color (in one of the pictures the color appears to be black; that is because of low lighting and no flash). All that is needed to make a complete 1940's seat is the pan top with...
This partially restored c.1917 Iver Johnson Superior Truss Bridge Roadster Model 1788 bike is almost complete. Included are: frame, fork, headbadge, head set, crank hanger set, cranks, hanger sprocket, seatpost, bushing for seatpost/frame, seat, pedals, and handlebar stem. Everything in the...
Just in the event that one of the collector's in this group still needs a saddle, I'd like to report that there are five (5) of the Persons WWII Saddle Undercarriages still available. I am including a photo. I also have several different large posters produced by Columbia and New Departure...

While reviewing some older Trade Magazines, I came across the 1960 January issue of The Bicycle Journal, where on page 82 there is a photo of a huge stack of AMF Pedal Cars, fully assembled and individually packed in wooden crates. The inventory is located in the facility of Industrias Cora S.A...
Hi Eagle,
You are very welcome; it's always a pleasure to be of assistance. Don't hesitate to get back in touch with me if I can be of further help. I really agree with Higginsforever; don't give up! I have always had the following little "mental vitamin" that kept me going and helped me...

You might discuss the following concept with the agent that handles your Plumbing biz with Merchants: "You would use the same company name as your Plumbing biz but you would publish a dba for the bicycle department". Inasmuch as Merchants is providing the PLI for your Plumbing biz they would...
I agree 100% with HigginsForever; $150.00 is the high side of the price range so if you are not going to ride the trike, take the $150.00 and let the buyer enjoy the ride.

Sears Brand Adult 3-Wheeler (Tricycle)
I can't say with 100% accuracy, but I would bet 8 to 10 that the trike pictured was sold by Sears as an Adult 3-Wheeler (not a 2-wheel bike that was converted). The very close matching paint color of the bike frame & the tricycle unit in the rear is what I...
I agree; this is a great website and it provides a valuable service (for free) to the "bicycle collecting" community. My website presently has about 3,500 items posted (illustrated) and it grows by 10 to 40 additional items per day; it takes time to scan, edit and write text about each item. One...
It's apparently a bike sold by Sears with a Sturmey Archer 3-speed gear hub. It could be one of two: (1) a 3-wheel adult trike that Sears sold as a new complete unit ,or (2) a Sears brand bike that was converted into an adult 3-wheeler. We sold many conversion kits in the late 1950's and...
They are "Magic Cards" (a set of 5) published by New Departure as a sales and PR promotion. They came in a sleeve (like an envelope) with instructions. Attached is a pic of the sleeve with instructions. If you can't read the instructions contact me directly and I'll send you a large attachment...

Tsunoda was (and maybe still is) a bicycle manufacturer in Nagoya, Japan. I met with Mr. Tsunoda in the 1960's when we were trying to obtain additional production capacity for our Azuki brand bicycles; unfortunately our business with Tsunoda did not come to fruition. I recall that they produced...
For collectors of juvenile sized trikes, autos, tractors etc. I just opened a box of parts from the late 1950's; there are 5 items in this box, a pic of each is attached. Because the specifications require so much space I request that interested persons visit my website and go to the category...
Someone wants just the stand so if anyone wants just the basket (with platform and mounting brackets) it can be purchased as a separate item for $190 plus actual shipping cost. However if someone needs both items and responds within 5-days; they will have prioity.
Thanks, Howie
This is a used basket with some slight wire distortion (see the photos). The wire is the standard Schwinn heavy guage and is entirely intact. The basket is bolted onto a 3/8 inch thick plywood platform and the mounting brackets are bolted onto the bottom of the platform (there is still a...
I recently opened a carton containing several sets of 26" fenders. Each set is packaged with the braces and bolts & Nuts. There is a small can of matching paint with some. We used these extensively on rebuilt bikes in the 1950's in our bike shop. I was saving them to use on some bikes that I...

I have 7 Lobdell wood rims that have never been built up into wheels. The Lobdell brand is printed on each rim. The O.D. is 25 inches, the width is 1.065 inches. There are also four (4) additional 36-hole rims that are a little wider, they are 1.286 inches wide. All 11 rims were painted and...

I think this was produced by Columbia; it has the built-in kickstand and mono-tube seat stay. It is a project bike with a tank (no horn). The paint is original but rough and there is some rust. The front wheel is not correct; it is a Schwinn rim and hub. The seat, handlebar, stem and rear wheel...

Hi Dennis,
There are collectors who love high wheel bikes. The best way for you is to take photos of your bike and post them on this and on other forums where collectors can see the photos. Include "close-up" photos of specific areas where there is damage or printed text and also of the...
I'm 99% certain that it's a Murray. Not only the drop-outs, but the chainring, fork & front carrier bracket are Murray's style. Murray made bikes under many private brands, including Sears, so It could have been one of the many brands. It does not appear to be the original paint.
