1940 Colson Catalog

I just came across this 1940 Colson bicycle catalog on OhioMemory.

This is the fully catalog. Higher quality images available via the above link.

I totally missed that. Thanks!

With both of our URLs, something on this site keeps turning the "id" to "i.d." when input. I've tried editing it back without luck. Who would be the person here to bring that up to?

I changed my link to the search results link which seems to work fine.

Just a heads up... the scanned pages at the ohiomemory.org site are much higher resolution than the ones previously found. Handy if you need to zoom in and get some detailed look at something. Is there a posted copy of a 37 Colson Catalog? I've found 36/38 but not 37. Also, anyone know of a scanned copy of 1936 Simmons Hardware Co. catalog with their bicycles shown?

This got me thinking - and I may do a general post on this - is anyone working on a centralized list (or something) of all of these catalogs, and the various places on the internet that they are located? (I'm a librarian, and this has made me start thinking harder about the idea.)

DOES ANYONE HAVE A PICTURE OF A GREEN TANDEM?
