    1943 Dayton Huffman USMC bicycle information wanted

    I promised photos of my 1943 USMC bicycle several years ago but life got in the way; I was reminded of my pledge by a recent call from a forum member of The CABE who is also a Huffman G519 Army bicycle owner. Making up for lost time, here is some information and a few photos: 1943 Huffman...

    Manton and Smith???

    Let me also add that unit commanders often had discretionary funds for purchases on the local economy outside of normal supply channels to fill pressing needs. That could be how some period non-Columbia/Huffman bicycles got into military service.

    Manton and Smith???

    There was a Manton & Smith military bicycle at an MVPA convention -- it might have been the 1979 convention in Chicago -- confirmed by a small riveted brass tag that said "USAAF" and may have had a number. As I recall, it was a diamond frame lightweight design. It may have been the first vintage...

    Persons Tool Bag info needed

    To narrow that down a little bit, would the black finish on the end caps be glossy, semi-gloss, or matte? Thanks!

    Persons Tool Bag info needed

    Persons tool bags were provided to the U.S. Army during WWII for use on bicycles. http://thecabe.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?23506-1945-Military-Columbia/page2&highlight=persons+tool+pouch has good photos of the crafting of a reproduction bag. The Army bicycle manual "TM 10-1481, U.S. Army...

    Authentic 1945 Compax ( Military ? )

    It is quite likely that a Navy unit had discretionary funds available for small local purchases and this bicycle -- or a couple of them -- was purchased on the local civilian economy. It would have been much easier and faster than going through all the military red tape for a bicycle or two.

    Finnish Military Bicycles

    I have a Finnish Army bicycle I believe it is a Tunturi or Monark -- it is unbadged -- and dates from WWII. It was rebuilt and upgraded in 1974 but it has details like the hole in the rear fender for the original WWII German-style rear reflector. Everything is original. The rear plate...
