All that I know is the Elgin was my Uncle's bike and he rode it about 20-30 miles a day when he was healthy. He passed away close to 15 years ago but my other uncle that was never married lived in the house until 3 years ago when he passed away. When he passed, the house was left to my mom and dad who in turn gave my wife and I the house. The bike was in the basement and I loved it since I was about 5 years old. I started fixing it and restoring it but got laid off and unfortunately had to sell it. I regret it to this day but it was either get behind on bills and have an awesome bicycle or get rid of the bike and get my life in order I recently went through a big box of pictures and found these 2. Im going to keep looking through them to see if I can find anymore of the bike or any old bikes for that matter. Glad you guys liked the pictures.

A very sad story, all around.

Here's an oldie that I really think DevonScience'll definitely get a kick out of...

Oscar's birthday party 1938. That was the first and last time he saw his new SilverKing Hex Tube or his new friend 'Lefty'

Here's one I've never seen one before. A 1945 Aluminum Rollfast prototype.

not vintage but interesting
