    That's why I was thinking these bikes would be I guess a bit more rare? Its also just odd that I too haven't ever heard of jordan marsh at all let alone a bike line. The most interesting thing is I've somehow in the 3 weeks ive started getting back into bikes, I end up with 2 different jordan...

    Oh yeah thanks. I forgot to put that part. MO in the serial is Murray. The MO6 means Murray 1966. x28 is the Jordan Marsh store code. Am curious about Jordan Marsh bikes. Im also curious about how Jordan Marsh sold their bike. Did they alter them themselves per special order and seem to have...

    I also gravitate to hardware smalls at the market. Never know when you need that old bolt or flathead screw. Usually find this stuff at the bottom of $3 take the rest tool box’s. Cheaper then running to the part store for something silly. Now finding these old flatheads coming in handy messing...

    This is the sister/wife bike of the Astro Flite I picked up. Guy picked this from same barn and from same year. They must have bought a boy and girls bike in Christmas 1964-65. Missing tank so far but he may end up having it. Seems to be a difficult bike to research. Not much info on these out...

    Hey thanks for asking. What do you think a bike like this would be worth? There isn't much sales info on this bike. It is all original, even the zephyer flight tires and down to the pristine green felt perfectly in tact around inner rim. Seems the tires have never been all the way off the rims...
