A few items came my way, including a pair of Fowlers that have been in limbo in Chicago for over a year. Thanks to @Velocipedist Co. for arranging the storage and for bringing them out West this week.

After a few hiccups, this original Iver basket finally made it my way. Thanks again @Iverider for your patience!

And last but not least, a couple of you may have heard about this local find...

It was a wild week. I haven't purchased a bike in several months, but brought three home from the Jafco/Stockton swap meet, and obtained these two near mint middleweights locally. A 1959 green Hornet from @PedalPusher!Charlie and a1967 Typhoon from a trade with @Jeff the Skid. Both bikes look virtually unridden and showroom fresh. I'll start a thread this week in the Middleweights forum. The Typhoon needs nothing, and I'm going to install the correct 1959 rear carrier on the Hornet.

I also bought this original paint Huffman Airflyte from Jim at Jafco for less than the purchase price of the tank and Delta frontload headlight. I'm installing the correct fork, seat and tires this week.

And a 1941 Westfield from Oliver at the swap meet for the amazing sum of $30!

Flashlights and bicycles seem to go together well, so I have quite a few. When I found these at an antique store, I was dumbfounded, but had to have them. They are for synchronizing flash bulbs and camera shutter. I can find very little other information other than the patent drawing I found online. These where made at the Hipwell manufacturing company in Pittsburgh PA. I bought a hand pump brass grease gun at the same antique store a couple years ago and the proprietor told me they came from an executive at Hipwell that had them on display in his office. He is no longer at the antique store, but I think these may have also came from the same place. One appears to be a prototype.
