This 1938 Goodyear bike was actually made by Colson. The rack and chainguard are identical to the ones found one the super rare Colson Imperial. It's a girls bike so it doesn't have that much value...Sorry girls...but it's still a really nice old bike. Thought I'd share. Thanks!!

Wow beautiful bike. Do you ride it
Thanks! My step daughter rode it for many years back when she lived with us. I've actually just got done parting it out so this is the old girls last hurrah. I'm glad she'll live on here on this site!
Very nice bike. I just bought one like it today but no rack, light, or truss rods. Mine is a plain jane.
Thanks for your comments guys. Check out the headbadge!
I can hear Mike Wolfe from here wanting to buy that thing!
You have a treasure.
Thanks Wendling!!!
LOVE THE GOODYEAR BIKE, toolate2 are those rare? ive never hear or seen one before.
Thanks for the love Bell!!! Goodyear didn't make bikes, they contracted with other bike manufacturers and sold their bikes rebadged as Goodyear bikes. SO...yeah, there are fewer Goodyears than their first run counterparts... I guess...lol...
Thanks Kerry!!!!
Thanks Hedge!!
