1921 - 1930 CCM

(Click for full photo)

1921 - 1930 CCM would like to submit a photo of my 1924 CCM(not sure of the model).I found it at a scrap yard in Ottawa. I ended up paying $5 for it. It appears to be all original parts(except maybe the seat and grips). I am going to restore it. Strip off the many layers of paint.(Must be close to 1/8" thick in some places).Bike rides pretty well once you get it rolling.I would also like to submit a serial number guide for CCMs - 1921-1975.It's still a work in progress but useful none-the-less.I'm only missing a couple of years. I hope you post it. It's hard to find much on CCMs.I have a collection of 35(and growing all the time)CCMs.

1972 Montgomery Ward (Hawthorne) Here's a picture of my new bike…It's a vintage Ward's Hawthorne but I'm not sure of the year…late 60's? early 70's? Either way, she's quite a speciman! All original, mostly garaged…the leather seat is intact and gorgeous. Do you think I got a deal for $60-?

1901 - 1910 Pelham

(Click for full photo)

1901 - 1910 Pelham I have a Pelham track bike( ? ) from the 1890s? to maybe 1910?. It is from Morley Brothers in Saginaw, Michigan. They were the second largest hardware store in the USA in the late 1800's, and were based in Saginaw, Mi. It has wood rims, intricate design work, block chain, and lugged frame. I am only guessing as to it's age, but I think it is close.

1956 Sunshine Built by "Sunshine", in Waterloo, Ontario. Unsure of year, but likely to be 1940s-1950s. Serial# is located on the seat tube a bit under the seat and is 016541. Un-original rims and wheels (the white handlebar grip is un-original also) Original rims were likely pinstriped and matching color. 28 X 1 1/2 Canadian size tyres, chainguard is missing.
