Not my thing, but I couldn't resist purchasing this 100% original early Mead Ranger:

http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/Kevin-Krugers-Bikes/MeadRangerRoadster/

Equipped with factory original accessories including a very cool celluloid MEAD "STONG LIGHT" frame pump and front removable oak splint market basket plus leather tool kit with original tools/oiler (not shown in photos because one side panel needs restitched). Assuming the tires are original as they obviously developed "Flat Spots" from sitting many years!!!

This is how the bike looks after a very quick non-thorough cleaning. Note still shiny spokes and and simply beautiful front fork with center raised bead on the blades!!!

Will probably consign this bike to an upcoming Copake auction, provided they deem it worthy.
