end of dry spell 1940's Hawthorne

[62hotrod]

i have had a dryspell for a while now just finding old girls bikes or junk 80's stuff then i decided to run an ad in a different newspaper and this is the result of the 2nd call a very nice old 194?'s wards hawthorne looks like it's still all original and just needs a good cleaning and fix the tires replace the grips and add a rear stand the seat is still in great shape it has a cool paint scheme that is faded but should clean up nice maybe this is the end of my dryspell or just a lucky day ........

Sweet bike man, I have it's brother! Mine is a 39. I am very partial to hawthorns, so if you decide to sell or if there is another brand of bike you are partial to, maybe we can trade cuz I have a ton of bikes in comparable condition!

Looks like there's a lot of room for an oil tank in between the seat tube and fender if you are a board track fan.
