Cycle Truck Question??

[Jrodarod]

I purchased a 1939 Schwinn Cycle Truck and it had some interesting wheels on it. I'm guess they are Lobdell rims. The hub has a sliding axle and looks just like my eclipse hub but no stamp. Can you guys and or gals help me identify what it is and what it's worth. I have no use for this wheel. Thank!

Funny,I've had at least 20 cycletrucks,1939-46. Never have had one with a flat lobdell,and the bone stock 1946 had a eclipse drop out axle. All the pre war ones I've had,have had heavy steel,enameled 36 hole drop centers,w/a large flange front hub,no drop out axle. Late 1941,they were blacked out for the war effort. Hope this helps.

this is my late 1942 small basket cycletruck.

I have the same hub on two of mine, though not with the painted rim. One (41) is a drop-center, the other (39) appears to be a re-chromed Lobdell, I think, but both front and rear are nicely chromed.

NOTE: The seat on the 39 has been replaced since the photo.

If selling it thru here let me know how much!

Aren't most Lobdell's stamped with logo near the valve stem hole?
