1936 Colson w/battery bars

[mickeyc]

Don't get me wrong. I dig it. Fully equipped rare bike in the special order Ivory frame with contrasting fenders. But I do think it's a bit over the money. If my girl didn't already have hers, she'd make an offer. I think she picked hers up a few years ago for about $1500.

Did Colson really make a ladies with the chain guard on the left?

My guess is that some art director transposed the artwork for the sake of composition and flow unknowingly making the bike appear to drive from the left side.

He is fishing.

Can't blame him. He gave this away earlier this year for $400.
Cathedral stem probably double that with original plating. Plus all the delta prewar bling.

I don't blame him. People can ask what ever they want.

He would do a lot better joining the CABE and using the Deal or No Deal page.
