COLUMBIA MODEL ?

Great job, Brian !


That War Tax stamp is really neat. Is the usual license label still present as well ? ( So few of these survive...)

You have an earlier Meteor type. Yours has the earlier motor and a female crank. The Model 15 came out in 1915. This had a later motor with a male crank. You have a very interesting machine. It's older inventory with the war tax label on the bottom. It's a very interesting piece of history. Now you need some WWI records for it. Nice machine.

Thanks Harvey, I did not know about the earlier female crank. Then it must have really sat in a shop or warehouse for a long time. Interesting!
