<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 192747, member: 44"]The bike does look similar to Schwinns of that era, but think the chain guard and the dark side of the seat would be green. Also don't think the frame down from the handlebars to the pedal region had a cross bar. I think it was just 2 flowing bars or whatever it is called.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]54470[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Then after seeing and comparing the above, came across the following of late 1940s Schwinn girls bike. Gee, it looks like this one of what these old eyes can see. The big differences are the stands. The one online has a fold down stand in the back while the OP's bike has a kick stand. Also the Op's fenders are chrome, silver, while the one online has blue fenders. The one online looks repainted or has new fenders??? Scroll about 2/3rds of the way down the page where there are several pics of a 1947-48 Schwinn blue girl's bike.</p><p><a href="http://jims59.com/vintageschwinns/Jims%20vintage%20Schwinn%20Balloon%20Tire%20Bicycle%20Collection.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://jims59.com/vintageschwinns/Jims%20vintage%20Schwinn%20Balloon%20Tire%20Bicycle%20Collection.html" rel="nofollow">http://jims59.com/vintageschwinns/Jims vintage Schwinn Balloon Tire Bicycle Collection.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
