Calling Pre '33 AS & CO Folks!

[dasberger]

Sup Caber's?! Life has been extremely busy which is a good thing.... With some recent examples showing up and some gentle pressure from the community for an update I'm going to put some effort into getting it done.

Here is my request...
If you have a pre '33 AS &Co built bike you would like to see added please PM me the following:

Serial #
Crank date if present
Badge
Any decals (down tube, Etc)
Model

I will of course look at those added to the thread but not having to scour for the info would be helpful.... It took many months of scouring to put the original together

Thanks Das

Check out Miq’s spread sheet that he compiled for the Schwinn New World model.
It’s a great example that will be the gold standard for anyone researching those models and late pre/postwar Schwinn built bikes in the future.
It’s not just a serial number chart.
By documenting any characteristic changes, eventually once enough bikes are added to the list, you can pinpoint exactly when those changes were made.
It’s definitely becoming the best compilation list for any model made to date.

Happy to pass the torch if you would like to work on it Marty... I agree @Miq has done a wonderful job I just don't have the time to devote to revising what I've compiled thus far. My goal was to put together a list so we could date Pre '33 Schwinn. Seems to be working so far

Ha!
I was hoping we could talk Miq into taking it on.
My old boss used to tell me not to do anything you don’t want to do, too well, because you’ll get stuck doing it for the rest of your life.
