1950s GARRY by Raleigh Made in England 1 speed
This is a real cool 17.5" ladies bike. It's been difficult gathering info on this particular bike. Though by viewing it I can clearly see it is a Raleigh made bicycle, more than likely manufactured in the Phillips plant between the years of 1957 - 63. Also it has some nice lug work, and from my experience I will go as far as saying that this is a Clubman style, with the same geometry. Probably not Reynolds 531 tubing, rather the light weight 20/30 high carbon steel. This is quite a nice little bike.
Look at the graphics they are all there and look great, the way they did these then sure showed the passion. There is still quite a bit of red pin stripping left, you just got look a little hard at er. The head badge is real cool and rare: J. H. Ashdown Hardware Co. This Winnipeg store first began in 1869, and at some point CCM made bikes for them for some time. Though here is this one, a English made Garry, and certainly made by Raleigh.
