My first bike was a 20" stripped down Columbia. Had it around 1958 but don't know what happened to it. That's a nice one you have. Made way more solid than modern kids bikes. Gary

R is 1952 in this case. Westfield recycled letter series a few times, but that bike is typical early postwar. Check out Mr. Columbia's site for more info. -Adam
