I had to go to my mother’s house this afternoon to do some maintenance on her furnace. I had forgotten that there were some old bicycles in her basement. There were three frames: one I recognized as my old Huffy 20” wheeled stingray style bike.
But, the two others I don’t really remember as a kid. Both are woman’s/ step through frames. The blue and white one has no name plate, but must be old, because the sprocket and chain are 1” pitch.
But, the green bike has a name plate that was quite ornate, and says Trophy… I did a google search, and the only Trophy bike I could come up with, is a bicycle shop in Philadelphia PA. This bike looks like it is from the fifties, or earlier.
Has anyone heard of a Trophy brand bike, or know any of the companies history?
Myself… I had never heard of them. Maybe next week I can drag the frame out and take a picture of it.
