This is how I found it, leaning up against the scap metal pile. I looked and looked for the bars and any part of a saddle, but no luck. The rims are steel and drilled for pneumatic tires, which had just been invented four years prior. Notice there are no nipples on the ends of the spokes. They are located on the hubs. It was made by Coventry Cycle Co. in England.

How it made it to NH I will never know, and who took it to the dump is a mystery. It was sold in an auction for over $1000. I put absolutely no money into it. Best flip ever!
