Look Ma, No Hands!
I'm trying to figure out what bicycle my father had as a child. Him and his brother received the same bike at Christmas in 1954 or 1955. They say it was a Columbia, with a tank (horn button on the side), no springer front end, it did have a headlight on the front fender, and neither had a rear luggage rack. They would be 9 or ten years old at that time, so not sure what size bike they received. I assume a boys size. I can't find a similar outfitted bike from those years..unless the luggage rack was a dealer option that Santa didn't choose for them? Both bikes were black and red. Any ideas? i assume it was a three star since the family wasn't very well off and they had to buy two bikes...but thats a guess..
 
Probably not a 3 Star as they had luggage racks. There was a model line called "Boys Juvenile Equipped" that sounds more like they had.

Oh wow, thanks for the information. I have already sent a screenshot to my father to see if it jars his memory. Now time to start looking for one! LOL
