    While shopping an a local antique store I discovered this little find. Thinking it would be great yard decorations, with the help of some flowers and trees.
    Later after looking this garden orniment over, I thought, maybe this could be a restoration project.
    Sad part, cant find any history on it, the name tag is gone, the tires say Schwinn, the serial does not match Schwinns data, looks pretty old.

    Done a lot of Googling but cant find the history. Anybody know a little bicycle history?

    Next guess, Flower Garden or restore?

      The chain guard and sprocket look like JC Higgins which was Sears brand name for bikes after WWII..... Most were built by Murray... Here's a link for you:
