Dave, and the other replys, thank you. I truly think this is an amazing find. It just doesn't go with my BMX & Muscle bikes. Being it is almost as old as my parents I think it belongs in another collectors possession.
Great info & I love it sitting in our family room but it will not be put in a...
I have a little time now. The bike is a skiptooth. It has 16" rear Goodyear solid tires & a 20" front Goodyear tire. Where would I locate a serial number? There is nothing stamped on the bottom bracket.
Thank you for all the kind comments (from others too). I do feel very fortunate to find it and be able to own it. It will be a prized item in my collection even though I've been collecting muscle bikes now for a few years & moved away from BMX. I still can't believe how sweet it is. I will get...
Colson Tricycles are.pretty common & don't have a big value. I do have another one here but when they are NOS vs. a used one in nice shape, it's a whole different ballpark. I will put it in a couple shows & maybe do some swapping at some point but for now it is room decor.
I was 99.9% sure it had to be original. I've collected for 15 years & usually can spot a repaint. Are the NOS ones fairly common then?
I have another skip tooth chain drive Colson trike that is rough but 16" wheel all the way around. I thought it was too nice to pass up. Irony is: it has been...
I did buy it. I might not get to the serial number until Monday or Tuesday due to us closing on a new house today & moving over the weekend.
There is no reason to restore this trike. It will go in our expected new baby's room.
Thanks guys. It truly is a time capsule & I think it's never...
That is a sweet Red Team. You aren't based in Colorado are you? I tried to buy a super nice Red frame once on ebay & the guy who beat me on bidding was in Colorado. Red Team always eluded me but I did have a complete NOS blue as well as several other blue one.
Great bike! Be careful with that...
2 extra tires & an extra front clad rim. I'm learning new stuff..... one important thing is: when you are at an Antique Mall out of town & a vendor is there, ask if they have any old bikes. This bike is pretty cool, now I have something else on my list to hunt.

Tre Bien.
I was only guessing on brand after hours & hours of research, sprocket & front fender brace along with headbadge screws being horizontally placed (no headbadge) led me that it is a Mead.
My mistake. There was some stuff on the brake hanger. It is a New Departure rear hub.
Thanks guys, found it Monday but finally figured out what it was 99% on Tuesday. Drove some hours today to pick it up.
My oldest bike by far was a 53 Black Phantom, I think I have it beat by a few years with this fresh find. I'm 99%sure this is a Mead Century or Ranger from the 20's. Picked up in Quincy, IL today. It was not on CL or anyplace public, just a little networking. Debating on what my direction will...
Something seems off to me. Seat & grips have a lot of wear but paint is super nice. Repaint years ago? Rear tire has also been replaced.
Where is the bike located?
Joel,
Thank you. The original paint is underneath this paint. I took the tank off and used some thinner because I knew this was not original paint. I did want to add that the luggage rack also has a spot for a light in the rear. I did get some responses and because it is NOT a loop frame some...
iI am new to the site but been collecting over 10 years. I have numerous bikes just nothing like this. I participate in forums and help out when I can and I do appreciate help and hopefully will be able to retunr the favor. I have lurked around the site but never joined until today.
I picked...
