I'm looking for a 30's troxel saddle. I really dont care about condition, just as long as the frame and seat base are in fair condition. I'm building up a replica 20's-ish messenger/telegram bike from old photos I have. It seems that the troxel style saddle, most of the time without the luxury of springs, was most common. My G. Grandfather was a messenger boy in the late 1890's until almost 1920, then my grandfather, and now me.... So I've got a lot of old photos even his last Crown bike.
If anyone knows where I might look, thanks for the info.
Ride safe.....
