Finally riding a big boys bike
Ok, I have been pondering this for awhile now and maybe my fellow Schwinners can help me out.
What criteria determined which style badge went on which style bike? For example, the Arnold Schwinn World badge versus the fat oval badge? I see some bikes of the same year and model with 2 different style badges. Was it just a matter of what the dealer had laying around? What about the Winged oval badge? When was that used? I have bikes from the 50's with all 3 style badges, not that it matters much but I certainly would be suspicious of a Planes & Trains badge on a 50's bike.. Anyone have any input on this?
Hey Greenphantom, does your extensive book cover this?
