    I received this bicycle for my 6th birthday in 1946. It's all aluminum with solid rubber tires and a Goodyear drive belt. The decal on the front says George Jue Mfg. Venice, Calif. Would like to get more information on this unique bike.

      This was a high quality bike. You certainly couldn't get an aluminium frame before the war ended! Guess the glut of aluminium made this model possible. Don't think I remember seeing this style frame but then I don't collect them or know "sh--" about. Great yr as when & was born!

      I have no idea of the history on this but you might consider contacting The Wheelmen or Pedaling History Bicycle Museum:
