So I got to thinking and I remembered that when old Mad Jack Lennan sold his shop he had a few Schwinn decals laying around that he threw out (he'd lost his Schwinn franchise years earlier). I dug 'em out of the trash and put 'em in a folder. Have been carting them around for 30 years now:

These are some down tube decals. Anybody know the era, what model bike they'd be on, etc?

Dealer Door Decal- too big to fit my scanner:

Again, any idea how old this might be? For that matter, how about these? This next one has a nice '60s feel to it:

Last one:

Am thinking about framing these and putting 'em up on Ebay...
 
early schwinn varsities (1960 8 speed) had checkered seat tubes, i believe the 5 speed corvettes did too but i think the were a little different than what youve got pictured.
 
We can find this checkered model on AMERICAN 's 1955, 56, 57 maybe 58
and on TIGER 's 1959, 60 and more, and more and more....

Those dealer decals would bring good money on ebay! I've seen other brands on there, and bought a couple Rollfast, Columbia, and Raliegh decals, but not Schwinn.. Nice! ~Adam
