HUFFMANBILL
Finally riding a big boys bike
Hey ALL,
A guy named Paul Wright sent me questions and pictures of this same bike back in early April 2018. When I inquired about the missing serial number he informed me it was a 4 (D51874) and the fork code is 22 (Feb., 1942). AS I remember, I gave him an account of the missing parts and he also wanted to know the value. I inquired if he wanted to sell it ( I really was not interested as I already own 1942 Huffman #D50158 presently the earliest military model, I believe on Mercian's Huffman list) , but he never returned that inquiry and I never heard from him after that. I thought it was interesting that this bike had and original Persons military seat rather then the Mesinger sliding rail usually seen on these early bent tube Huffman's.
Regards,
Bill
