NBJ=Newsletter By John . . .


:shock:

who is a guy in indiana that produces a newsletter on vintage bicycles. he's also published? some nice books/reference material for the hobby. one such publication is on the Colson bicycle. that's what i was referring to.

NBJ is one of the original sources of vintage bike info! I scored a big box of his and other bike newsletters from around 1989-96 on ebay. A lot of good info there! These were the first wave of collectors of post-teens bikes. It had to be a much more difficult time trying to find parts without ebay and the internet!!! ~Adam

i got about 30 newsletters at a swap meet once - the best $5 spent!
