Cruisin' on my Bluebird
I just picked this up from Hershey. The chain ring looks Colson.

Can I see better pics of the fender bridges and where the arch bars meet the head tube and the seat mast?

The 26-tooth sprocket is not quite Colson. The smaller outer cut-outs (holes) are similar to a Colson 24-tooth, and similar to a later Shelby 26-tooth. The drive pin may have an odd offset, (to distinguish it from the later standard Shelby sprockets).26T Sweet Heart (like Colson) Chain ring 1.jpg
Also, notice how the Colson & Shelby sprockets both have the drive pin holes in place of one of the 5 tear-drops, (not in-between).

Ive seen/owned that crank on Miami built bikes. The badge looks like it was added when it was repainted.
