Jamie's Collection
Jamie,
This is a great collection for reference. Thanks.
Now I believe all of the top row are prewar.
Also I know during the war CCM used a decal, I am not sure when they started with the decal (I don't think it was the start of the war).
I believe post war they used badge 'N' ,as I have labelled , in 1947 until 1949.
I think in 1950 they began to use badge 'O'. All you experts please help. The rest I am not sure of.
Thanks,
Mark
From my experience i have also found that Badge "N" was mostly used on ladies loop frames. To find one that is still intact is a bit of a struggle, as almost all ladies bikes had the basket on them and they liked to rest on the headtube. The head tube badge was likely the first to break or come off completely.
