Funny thing is that I had a early bid on this bad boy , I never imagined !!! $175k
Guess 4 cylinder race motor is the ticket

mike wolfe is letting go of 30 sweet rides on
auction coming up including several early , Indian , Harley and excelsior teens motorcycles , I’m sure prices will be singing.

Now that the bicycle results are posted, I would be interested to know what the CABE members think of the final bid on the teens-era tall frame Mead Crusader?

One of the earliest Mead tall rangers I have seen... maybe 1917?? Well, I was 2nd highest bidder. My next bid would have been 3,000, plus 20%, plus sales tax, plus shipping. All told, I would have had over 4,000 in it. That's too much for me. The winning bidder did well at $2750 if they were there in person!! It's a sweet bike that was too far away. Congrats to the new caretaker.. it is sweet.

What year is that brochure? @Blue Streak. It is excellent. Hopefully the buyer will share some photos of the bike. The auction pictures were pretty low quality with the lighting.
