Both of those old Hen's have spent their entire life until now in Norway, the old guy that owned them have passed, obviously his family didnt find the Norwegian market to be interesting. The now deceased previous owner was quite a character, spoke with him in the phone a few times years ago. I am quite sure he collected those bikes as early as in the sixties. Hendersons were sold as early as in 1914 here, but it is from 1916 to the early twenties they sold in big numbers. Wouldnt mind to own the 14'ish project, unfortunately Bonhams is not my playground :-) Sverre http://www.veteran-mc.com ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Here is a nice one http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/21897/lot/173/ |
