Sold Original 1938 Schwinn Catalog

[onecatahula]

An exceedingly RARE 1938 Original Schwinn Catalog.
As discriminating Schwinn aficionados concur, 1938 was THE seminal year in the evolution of Schwinn balloon-tired perfection !
Let us review, shall we:

• Introduction of the Cantilever Frame, which would serve as the foundation for not only Autocycles, but the B6, the Phantom, and even the Stingray. It all began in this catalog.
• The legendary “Knee-Action” or Springer Fork. Introduced here.
• The ill fated “Double-Duty” Fork is seen for the first time on these pages.
• The beloved Feather Chainguard seen here first.
• A personal favorite, the BC 117.
• A multitude of other firsts; see if you can spot more . .

Outstanding original condition. No rips, stains, markings, etc. FREE shipping in a sturdy mailer (correction: an alert Caber points out a coffee stain on back cover page)
Thanks for looking !

I stand corrected on that last page.
The catalog presents very well. No bends or creases either.
Thanks for the offer,
