Help!

Hey fellow bicycle Freaks!

I've been working on a book about interesting prewar Schwinn head badge names and the Companies that sold the bikes. I've been having trouble finding examples of some of the bikes I've been writing about. Here are the ones I would love to find some photos of:

Albright's "Superb" and "The New Zephyr

Kalamazoo Supercycle

"The Original" Guaranty bicycle

Hoffman Arrow

Speedboy Special

Landry's Challenge

Tracy-Wells "Belfast" and "Franklin"


Here's what the badges look like. Thanks! Barry

@barnyguey Is the "Tracy Wells Belfast" a Schwinn bike? I just happen to have one....

Yes it is Schwinn. Do you think you want to sell it? Thanks, Barry

Never mind, I just noticed you said you had a bike. I'm only looking for badges. Sorry about that. Have a great night. Barry

Photos would be great! Is the paint on the badge? My Belfast badges have no paint. Thanks, Barry

No paint on the badge. I'll get some pics of the bike and badge. I guess I should bring it into the garage and not let it sit outside like it has for a year.....

Darn, I've been trying to find one of those badges with the paint on it so I can see what they look like. Thank you for your help, Barry

Thanks for the photos! That is a Schwinn for sure. Someone put another brand sprocket, pedals, fenders etc. on it but it's a prewar Schwinn. The frame style is called the motorbike or as collectors call it "the double diamond style". Barry

Maybe a 1936 model.
