This bike may or may not be original but I believe is rare. The aluminum gothics were an option for 38 and 39 for an Autocycle. I have only seen a picture of one other but have been told by Leon that a few more are out there.

As we've discussed before on this thread if you start throwing in colors and options then a ton of bikes could be added here.

Just found this site and you. I have a Hawthorne triple bar. It's mostly original, has a Schwinn springer fork is the only thing I can see. Can you help me confirm which year it is and provide me more information if I send pictures? Thank you. Terry Boling
