Mr. T. I am not so sure this is a Shelby "Traveller" badge on a Shelby bike...could be wrong though! Need good pics of fork and headset cups and front of head tube close up. Ladies Shelby's also seem to have had a "collared" connection at the toptube to seatube spot and seatstays to seatube spot as well. Just saying I am not sure about this one. @slick ??

Many thanks to everyone. I'll have to take more pics later tonight of the head tube and forks, but here is the badging on the head tube and the seat tube. The seat tube is from an old bike shop in Brooklyn (this photo came out blurry so I'll try to get a better shot of that). The color is a very light blue/gray. One interesting note, the front fender goes into a blunt point rather than a typical rounded edge. I'll take photos of that as well.
