1955 Columbia According to the serial number and some other research, I am certain that this is a 1955 Columbia balloon tire bike. I see no tank mounting tabs. Leather persons spring saddle is actually still somewhat comfortable. I do not know the model, but a catalog showed a similar paint scheme bike as a "W29T". This was a 52-53 cat. though. Missing the fender light(aren~t they all?) About to begin a resto on this bike soon.

1952 Sunbeam Oilbath chaincase. This is not like a Raleigh enclosed chaincase. This is sealed and holds a few inches of oil.
A really bad idea that only lasted a few years...

1974 High Wheeler I have what I belive to be a reproduction of a highwheeler bicycle. The front tire is 28x1.5 the back tire is 16x1.5. The seat is leather with springs and says troxel the pedal says made in usa k10491. The frame has hooks like it was taken from a bicycle with handle brakes and a wire to the back tire. But there are no breaks at all. It is in great shape. I recived it from my landlord who is 75 years old and he has owned it for many years. He will not give me any information on it he said I would figure it out. I am from Cleveland Ohio and so was my landlord so I thought maybe it might be made by lowell kennedy from defiance ohio who made reproductions in 1974 but I don~t know. I haven~t been able to find any bike that looked like it.
