Very unique seat and frame suspension! The frame suspension is similar to what I've seen on some baby carriages from that period. Neat that it still has the name on the frame. These TOC trikes are the hardest ones to identify as far as a maker is concerned since many of them look very similar. Possibly it was built by a company that also made baby carriages? Thanks for sharing the reference photos.

Hi Mark
What a cool little trike !
Might there be a connection to the Tribune by the Black Mfg. Co. Erie ? Same "robins egg blue" color and very similar graphics detail.
Tribune had the "Blue Streak" and here is the "Blue Devil" = Like father like son .
Thanks for sharing.
