Here's one of my favorite early racers, I've had it for quite a few years. A guy came up to one of the barn sales I was having at that time and it was in the back of his pick-up truck. I made him "an offer he couldn't refuse" and it was mine!
A dark green 1890's with an "Eagle & flag" decal on the headtube. It also says "Epluribus Unum". MAKER????
Both the chainring (10-1/2 inches diameter) and direct drive rear cog are quite large compared to most from that era.
This bicycle also sports "30 inch" wood rims instead of the usual 28 inch that gives the bike an interesting appearance.
The bars are marked "Schinneer, pat., Nov. 9, '97"
