Old Schwinn Bicycle Shop Finds 2/7

[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

Out of everything today, this will go down as one of my favorite finds. An original photo of my good friend Joe(the man who owns the Schwinn shop still today) and his mechanic modeling a first year Fastback.

DN - did Joe give that to you? I was at his shop last weekend and he showed me that very picture.

I've slowly bought most of Joe's collection for a while now. Joe is a truly good friend of mine and he wanted me to have it to preserve his shops history. I've made several displays in my shop dedicated to things that came out of his shop.

"No thank you" was actually on the sign when I found it.

Rewired and clean.

Cool finds, I have lots of car/service related goodies, but I've really been wanting to find cool bike shop stuff. Not much luck so far around here.
