The gentleman I bought this lemon peeler from found it in the garbage pile. He contacted me looking to sell and dropped it off at the shop this morning.

Someone must have thought it was a rotten lemon.
Sweet and sour score!
 
That is a pretty great garbage haul! It still has the yellow line gripper on it from the looks of it. Great original tire there! Congrats, glad you got a chance at it.
 
That's hard to believe. A complete with no fender dents, and original tires, Lemon Peeler just thrown away? Like they say "Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities, truth isn't. That bike even has a generator set, probably added when it was new by the Schwinn shop.

What's next? We'll hear about one found new in it's original box in a garbage pile?

Congrats!

When I told this story on my Facebook a guy said his uncle found one new in the box on the side of the road in the 80's or something?
