Schwinn Prewar Paint Combo ----A first for me anyway.....

[bobcycles]

Always wondered if Schwinn ever did a Dark Blue and red two-tone.
Yes they did! Here's a 1940 Hollywood in Blue and red...
anyone ever seen this odd color combo before?

Bob did you pick that one up? I remember seeing it on CL or something. Great score! Curious to see what it will look like cleaned up!

Believe it was on Craigslist in Indiana.

LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD BE A FUN BIKE TO DETAIL!

My 40s Cadillac has a similar scheme, tho it's maroon and Chicago cycle dark blue.
