Updated 18-11-17 .... I'll try and consolidate all numbers to this thread.
New Updates - with hard dates & date range info from Stolen Bicycle Ads & The Pierce Museum - Big thanks to cabe member Blue Streak! .........and everyone else who has contributed to this thread.
( Keep in mind some of the dates on these bikes are speculation on the owners part. Part of the reason we are doing the serial number list of these bikes is to help us all find a way to date range our bicycles. This has been indicated where possible - nothing is written in stone )
