Sold 1941 Wards Hawthorne bicycle for sale

[jmartin]

We got this bike as a gift, without any sort of documentation. On www.thecabe.com some very nice, helpful people weighed in and their opinion is, based on the photo of the serial number containing "14–SN", that this is a 1941 Snyder-built Hawthorne bicycle sold by Montgomery Ward.

We are very busy, having young(ish) children, so I may not reply quickly, but feel free to ask questions. Also, for the same reason, we'd prefer to sell it to someone who can just come pick it up. (If you really need it shipped to you, that might be possible, but of course you'll have to pay for the shipping, and the labor for getting it to a shop, and packed, etc. I don't know yet how much that costs, but I could make some inquiries. Again, precedence will be given to someone who can pick it up.)

I did also list this locally "for sale" for the same price.

One more thing: we think the relative who gave it to us bought it at a thrift shop or similar in Burlington, VT.

Good price for a cool bike, should sell quick local with all the vintage guys in your area and a vintage bike museum just up the bike trail in Fairfax, we do a vintage ride every July from Corte Madera to Fairfax, put some tires on it and ride! @RUDY CONTRATTI, @tryder
