My dad bought this bike at a garage sale, It had been sitting out in the Lodi Sun for a long time. I more or less named this site after this bike, because I felt it needed to be "redignified"

I lovingly scraped off the re-paint with a razorblade to figure out the pattern of the original paint. After I did a lot of searching on google, I guessed it was a Ward's Hawthorne bike, from the late thirties.
