J.C. HIGGINS 1956 or 1957 Bicycle, Beautiful Balloon Tire 26 Inch

Description

MY DAD BOUGHT THIS BICYCLE FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER IN 2013. HE DROVE FROM CHICAGO TO PITTSBURGH TO PICK IT UP. HE HAD THE SAME BICYCLE WHEN HE WAS A KID SO HE BOUGHT THIS TO DISPLAY IN HIS MAN CAVE.
THE ORIGINAL OWNER THAT HE BOUGHT IT FROM WAS A WOMAN. SHE RECEIVED IT AS A GIFT FROM HER PARENTS IN 1956 OR 1957 AND OBVIOUSLY SINCE IT WAS A BOYS BICYCLE SHE HARDLY RODE IT OVER THE YEARS.
THE TIRES WERE REPLACED BEFORE MY DAD BOUGHT IT, I HAVE THE ORIGINAL 2 TIRES THAT CAME OFF THE BIKE. ALSO THERE WAS CORROSION ON THE INSIDE OF THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT SO THE INSIDE WAS REPLACED.
THE NUMBERS UNDER THE FRAME READ 502 4546 AND THEN "U" OR "J" OR "O" AND SERIAL NUMER 214308
THERE ARE SOME SCRATCHES AND CHIPS IN THE PAINT AND A COUPLE DINGS ON THE FENDERS.
