Thank you to all who are helping me with this. I'm not the owner, but selling contents of a vintage house for the owner. His parents were from Sweden and this bike was ordered for his older brother in about 1958 & shipped from Sweden to Greenwich, CT where it still resides in the basement of the family home. The man who owned the bike, died (from sepsis after successful heart surgery!) and his younger brother (age 64) is dealing with selling their childhood home as he is soul survivor now. He remembers riding his older brother's bike many times, and to this day is amazed that his father ordered it and had it shipped from Sweden for his brother... Nice! (and they weren't wealthy, but obviously proud Swedes!) If anyone has a clue what I should do, I'm all ears. I guess I could offer to buy it cheap and clean the heck out of it; I don't think the owner wants to deal with that...but do I (60 yr old female who only rides an exercise bike!) Tks again!
