Finally riding a big boys bike
Hello.
A good friend of mine just picked up this 1936 Autocycle from the original owner's son who was an old friend of his. My friend has told me the story many times of seeing this Autocycle hanging in his old neighbor's garage. Unfortunately the original owner took it apart to repaint it in his later years and some of the original parts are missing. One of the missing parts is the headbadge which had three mounting holes as seen in the pictures.
Two on the top and one on the bottom. The two top holes are about 1 1/2" apart and the lower hole is about the same distance down.
Any insight on what this badge would have been? I know it may be a hardware store badge or something else odd, but all the ones I've ever seen have been the standard two hole design.
Thanks in advance for any input!
