Hello;
A great find this weekend in the central region of France - Saint Etienne, a COLUMBIA G519 MG89355 J9
The frame has suffered a little over time and some parts are missing...
A great challenge
Just found this bike and after doing a little research I believe it to be a legitimate WWII example. I know there are members that are well versed on this topic. Any input is welcome and appreciated. Both hubs are Eclipse / Morrow. Rear is date coded M-3. Third quarter of 1943. Serial...

Hello Adrian;
I made a trip of 1100 kms ther and back to look for it.

I think the light primer says it is from a very late Huffman.
