Really off topic as his collection were mostly ballooners. Leon and I have communicated a long time ago and he is one interesting fellow. His collection in this gendra is second to none unless you look at the Bicycle Museum of America and what they acquired from the old Schwinn Museum. (AKA Jim Hurd collection)To keep things on the up and up and according to the CR rules, that collection included the Paramount bike that broke the 100 MPH record by pacing a train. It had an inch pitch chain ring that was about a yard in diameter. I saw that thing in person and it was amazing.
