His dad also drowned.

"Buckley’s life came to a sudden end in the middle of 1975, when he died of a heroin overdose just after completing a tour"...

"The coroner's report stated Buckley died at 9:42 p.m. on June 29, 1975, from "acute heroin/morphine and ethanol intoxication due to inhalation and ingestion of overdose".[

I stand corrected, I swore I read he also drowned. Sorry...

i have that bike post war hawthorn. non tank model but also no spring. but hey its close. if still looking i will send pics tomorrow

 

[soulshine73]

i am sure you found one alredy but i believe this is the bike you are looking for except this is the standard trust rod model instead of the higher spec springer model. but its the perfect candidate to make the that bike you want. i have the trust rods for it too but you would want to change it out for a springer anyways. i sold the plate already. i am using the delta light and maybe a few other small parts but i would sell you the rest or what you needed

Hey everyone,

I was searching for the really cool Western Union bicycle from RI I recall after my surgury then and saw this thread.

One of my best friends here in Texas owns 2 vintage record stores and thousand of posters.

I will look for a Jeff Buckley poster or anything related whether you still have the bicycle or not. I'm a huge fan.

She has some Rick Griffin art all kinds of vintage albums and posters.

Would like to make a trip in that direction this Summer if you still have the 36 Western Union.

Oh, and I highly recommend the book below. Read this while in the hospital looking forward to being mobile again in March!!!

All the best everyone!
