I need some help with positive I.D. on maker of this Shapleigh Bicycle considered to in the category of Private Labeled bicycles.
Is the manufacturer Emblem, Pope, Westfield or Columbia components are of a much earlier bike, check out the forks definitely
not those featured in the 1935 Shapleigh catalog, the only description I can find of a Shapleigh Special.
The head badge was held on by a small screw at the top and a small nail at the bottom and the faded out paint
underneath didn't match the shape of the head badge.
Here is the I.D # 287718
Can someone please! help ?
