TOC McCready Special Made in Canada.

A friend of mine linked me this. It's up for auction at a local sale barn. From my quick search, it's a TOC bike made by The Henderson Bicycle Co. Wooden rims, wooden fender and a wooden chain guard.

Found this bit of history in my search.

Yea, I really like the headbadge on it. Don't see vertical scripted ones too often.

PS: When I posted this, the auction was at $35Cad with 5 bids, it's now up to $390 with 11 bids.

I think your post jumped the bidding. I placed a bid after I saw it.

I just saw this. Have a friend I work with whose last name is McCready. He owns zero bicycles. Maybe I can get him hooked!! I know I would be all over it and my last name was etched on the front of a bicycle... Thanks for posting, Fred

bidding ended, last bid I saw was for $520 with a few hours left to go. I'm wondering if a certain family friend bought it...
