 I also have 4 bikes that are up for auction also in same auction . The 2 Cleveland bikes of Dons I sold him some years ago.

some of the descriptions might be lacking important details.

for example, 678 - 1896 Massey-Harris Model "1" Bicycle, it doesn't say if seat, headbadge, rims, other parts are original to the bike or reproductions!

i know that Paul Watson does make reproduction Massey Model 1 headbadges ...... is that one of those?

wouldn't it actually affect the real value of a bike if the badge is a reproduction or not?

679 - 1896 Massey-Harris Model "A" Lady's Bicycle does state what is new/reproduction like the "new wood rims, rear fender and chain guard. and tires. Professionally replicated leather seat and pouch."
 
same auction Estimate:CA$2,000 - CA$3,000 as the model 1, but much lower current bid (obviously the ladies bike should bring less than the mens' version.
 
is this an original headbadge or a reproduction?
