Could it be an older promotional item for a jeans company? I don't recall seeing one before.

At a guess, it may have come out around the same time as the Levi's Gremlin-

ca. 1973?

Here is a photo of my Huffy faded blues bike from 1980 , 2 years after I got it new for my birthday. I later sold it in 1982 at our rummage sale, a huge regret now and would love to find one to buy again to ride. Any condition is fine. The denim seat had an orange Levi tag on the pocket cause like other companies do today with licenses, the Huffy co. did in 1978 by licensing the Levi name which was a huge clothing brand then to use for part of their denim line on bike.

I had one many years ago that I picked up from the curb on trash day. Was a 26" wheel road bike frame with jeans seat. Low end and not in very good shape so I kept the seat and sold it later for $5.. Gave frame and wheels to local Salvation Army store that accepted scrap metal to recycle. Could be a toaster by now..
