Restore this--no way Hozay!! MF ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Hello everyone: Anyone know much about these Henderson square badge Schwinns? This is a great barn find; a real survivor. I would date it 1919/1920 just after the acquisition of Henderson by Schwinn. Not for sale but I would like more information about it. Thanks MF I don't think I can add much to what you already know about your bicycle, except to say, that frame configuration is well documented in the catalog archive, but has rarely been seen in actuality. Super rare bike in what looks like a wonderful as found condition. I know the temptation will be for a full dress restore, but with bicycles, original condition is everything. Its made it this far without modification. Why tamper with it now? Great find! |
