This may be the Badge That Resembles a Ghost of the Past

[hoofhearted]

Some time ago a fellow CABEr posted a Pre-1933 ma-
chine that exhibited one of the strongest examples of
''badge-ghosting'' many of us had ever seen.

This member was hot on any trail that led to a badge I.D.

At that time ... there were a few detectives all over this. .

No Dice.

Am not able to locate that thread.

If there was ever a time to be helpful -- fellow CABErs ...
this is it. Your input is appreciated.

Recently, @trustrust posted a bicycle and it's badge (in
another thread) that may shed a little light on the matter.

See below ......

Thank you ...

..... patric

I had given up on trying to locate that badge..........psych! It sticks in my mind like a buried sliver of metal in my thumb that reminds me it's there everytime I touch that archbar. Do you think that may be a Miami bike Patric?

Thank you -- Dean !!

That is the ''Ghost'' ..... sadly it barely
resembles the VIA REX badge.

Your sense of recall is nearly paranormal.

Same here, Big Daddy !! ..

Every time I see a teen's-era archbar, Ken … I'm haunted by a
BIG ''Question Mark'' as to the I.D. of your .badge. That's why
I initiated this thread, today.

Captain Ahab was the lucky one. All he had sortshirketing his
mind was that damn White Whale ……….

Aye, Captain … a Miami-Built it be .
