1971 Cotton Picker. (GG July)

[Krateboy]

Original 1971 Cotton Picker. In my opinion the hardest Krate to find in this condition. Most original Cotton’s resembled Dalmatians after a while. Very fortunate to own this bike

Nice bike. In my opinion hardest Krate to find in any condition even though it was a 2 year bike (unless you want to include a 68 Pea Picker which had a run of just a few months). As I stated here before, how many 10 year old or so boys would choose a white bike with a white seat when they were at their Schwinn Dealer and saw all the other wild color Krates lined up next to this white bike. I bet their were less Cotton Pickers made in the 2 year production run than the Ghost that had a year run. I have the fewest original paint Cotton Pickers in my collection than any other color as they are tough to find which is why I always pay up for a nice Cotton Picker as I kind of like white bikes as I have grown old.
