It's a pretty common badge. Not worth much. Thank you. Barry

Jesse didn't restore it. He bought it that way. He sold it a long time ago.

Jesse bought it from Leon Dixon and he restored it or got it restored from i think Steve Castelli.

Actually i think it went like this there were three the original bike is/was Mike Spanglers. Castelli had one that he restored and went to New Breman museum as I was alittle late to get it or his Bb for my museum. i dont believe his went to Jesse. I always thought they bought the bike that was sold at Copake Auction. There was one that was made once from a Columbia that was offered to me for the museum.

It is rare like the death bike but I consider the list to be of what is in the general collections we consider the hobby. There are several untouchable bikes if your talking bikes from beginning to now .....

In my opinion the Tonk Old Hickory is the top of any list.....
