    First one of these I have ever seen. This is a Plaque from a 1929 Bicycle race from my area and surrounding towns.

      Nice handpainted plaque-- very typical of this era.

      What is the mystery?

      Just wondering about the time element concerning the foundation of the Y.M.C.A.
      Sorry, I will look it up -- I know how. Thanks anyway Scott.

      I don't know when the YMCA was founded, but it was huge during WW1 providing assistance to soldiers in the US and overseas in the form of recreation services and "care" items.

      December 29, 1851 in Boston the Young Men's Christian Association (Y.M.C.A.) opened. Today is their 162 anniversary.
