Another department store bike. Firestone did not make a single bike, they bought them from others, and had them slap on a Firestone label. During the bike boom, every tire shop, gas station, dept store, etc., had their own brand of bikes. No one is tracking these thousands of store brands, so web info is limited to non-existent. Value is all about what it is worth to you. Great condition is a plus!!

About a gillion of these were made, as Huffy/Murray/whoever made them for everybody.
