Sunday's Show and Tell...9/10/17

[jd56]

I fogot to mention last week Happy Labor Day and that we all need to pray for those suffering from Hurricane Harvey.
Now this week Hurricane Irma is a damaging force.

Being on the east coast, my family and I have battened down the hatches numerous times each fall, hoping to protect our belongings.
Those in Irma's path, please be safe.

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

I picked up this cool graphics bike shirt from the other site.

Went back to my buddy where I got all the old Custom car magazines and bought another box of the small custom car mags.for $20 .There are about 200 of these! They date back from about 1952.As kids we used to hide these inside our school books and read them during class............

I got this Delta ball light for for my sister's childhood bike, I've been collecting the missing parts for a while now and hope to get a complete restoration done for her by Christmas for helping me take care of our 93 year old mother. any help would be greatly appreciated. I still need a set of 24 inch Chrome or painted but need to be straight, middleweight fenders with braces for a 1965 Montgomery Wards Hawthorne girls bike

Found this Eldi repair stand last weekend in Ontario. Was at my son's provincial championship baseball tourney. (They won it all!!!) Nipped out between games. Saw an old bike shop. Struck up a conversation with the owner. This was up in a crawl space.
Weighs a ton. The clamps have been brazed stationary. Not arc welded. Maybe mod was done pre 1940's?

Also found this Bicycle joker card in a wall of my 100 year old house. Shows the earlier version of U.S. dollar sign...before the bottom of the "U" was discarded.

Marty,she came out ok. Wish i could have saved the tires,original leather on the saddle was beyond hope,too. You can check her out,up close and personal, at our LeftCoastCycles ride,in Venice,10/14/17.

Pretty much the same story with this latest acquisition.
It was purchased by the previous owner at the Turlock swap in 1980 and stored in a shed every since.
I rode it yesterday, for what I think might have been the first time in at least 30 years.
Rolls like a ball, downhill, down wind!
