Early G519 Columbia Stuff

-
I had the privilege to look over this fine bicycle for about 2 hours at the Reading WW2 weekend. Truly a great early 1941 Army pre contract G519. Everything on this bike matches the Pics from Bermuda. The rear 36-10 Morrow Hub does not have a date code stamped on it. A chromed hub. I'm helping the owner finish out the restoration by helping him with the seat restoration.

Hi @Pvtryanww2

A provable real one would be orders of magnitude harder to find than a G519. We don't know how many were made, but probably only in very small numbers.

They appear to be fairly standard mid 1941 models, with heavy duty wheels, etc.

Best Regards,

Adrian
