Mystery Fork

[Chips_Mahoy]

I was going through some parts yesterday and noticed this fork has small rivets and a stamped X on each side. Any ideas what it went to or if the rivets held something??

The rivets were probably reflective darts. :|

I could almost make out some old markings that looked like they could be part of a dart but wasn't sure. Any idea what bike had these? It's a fork for a 20' bike.

I have a pair of Hawthorne forks from 1970 that came on my 26"

Gold Street.........is it a thin piece of tin or aluminum? I can't tell in the pics on this little screen.

I think I found one. Do your darts look like this?

Yeah its a Murray fork that is like my Spaceliner's fork has those X's and that is for those screw in arrow reflectors, I don't know if those are factory or later add ons.
