This is a picture of my across the street neighbors when we were kids. The two boys on it were my best friends back in the 50s. I think this picture might have been taken in 1951 or 52? Can anyone tell me what kind of bike they are on. It's a poor picture, but the only one in existence of the bike. It was his first bike and he doesn't remember much about it except it was a skip tooth with what we called racing sprockets because the chain wheel seemed bigger than everyone else's. The truss rods look Schwinn as does the fork and that could be a sweet hart sprocket and it and it looks like some kind of straight bar but the picture is so bad I can't tell for sure. Model C Schwinn? I remember it having a cross bar on the handlebars but it looks to be missing in this picture, perhaps that was added later. Any ideas what the bike could be?
