Rollfast Roamer, D.P. Harris built?

Yes, kinda! :lol: Snyder was the actual factory that built the frames, Harris owned the Rollfast name, and sold them, they also made ball bearings and roller skates. Snyder also built bikes for Sears in the 20s-early 30s, (most) Hawthornes for Ward's, and they had several other badges for various distributors and stores, including Roamer, Black Beauty, Princeton, Peerless, Keystone, and American Flyer, and several others. -Adam
