Great stuff this week; love @jd56 streamline chainguard and @JKT wood boat, very cool.

Picked up this 1995 Centennial Black Phantom from the original owner with paperwork, fork key & Danbury Mint miniature. I know repops don’t get much love here but it’s in great condition. I’ll enjoy it a bit before it moves along.

A late 19th early 20th century Malaita war club (man this baby can kill ) I found it by accident and a mid century vase and few weird things.

I had a good day yesterday. Found a classic Sunbeam Coffeemaster vacuum pot in perfect working order; A decorative desktop brass telescope; and a set of very heavy chrome bocce balls in a wood case.

Finally "Daylight Savings Time".
I for one, like daylight!
That extra hour means better chances of seeing clearly what you're picking.
I hate surprises.

So, let's see what classics you have found from the past week.
Whether it be bike related or not.
Please include pictures as we do love pictures!

Found a few more things this week.

54 Starlet

42 wartime Schwinn

Another confusing Franken
(could use some help on this one, especially the small font serial#)

And a "Evans Compact 220" (pump action) pedal race car

That Franken bike is cool but I don't know what it is either. Leaning towards Colson on the frame.

A couple have mentioned a Maton Smith.

And as for the great finds so far...has to be the Daylight Savings Time syndrome.

Just an FYI. Those are likely Pétanque balls. A French game similiar to bocce ball. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pétanque

I like the boat a lot better than I do anvils! Sweet score. V/r Shawn

Rear fender brace and rear forkends don't look Colson.
