Massey-Harris & C C M bikes.

[J T CUNNINGHAM]

Let me (us) see if I can post some pics.

The first should be a Massey ad circa 1890's, the next,

a C C M Flyer (gold plated) that was in The Sports Hall of Fame, C N E Grounds

before they tore it down to build the present stadia. (Torchy Peden's bike.)

I wonder where the Flyer ended up.I'd like to think it's out there somewhere waiting for one of us to discover it in a basement or shed.One can dream anyway.:D

Try cshof.ca

It is not said, but it appeares that after the failed Ottawa attempt, everything is in storage.

I wonder where?
I sent them an e-mail,hopefully someone will get back to me.
I told them I was interested in making a reproduction of the gold-plated Flyer and would need lots of detailed photos.
They don't show much of it in their photo archive.
Thanks for sharing that site and let's hope that they can get it together and find a spot for the hall of fame.
I've got a 1100 sq.ft. 134 year old school house I'd let them use:D.
