Other things such as how the bike was equipped and who sold it can also provide clues to when the bike was built.īefore using this information make sure you have a Schwinn. Enough bikes have positively been dated by records such as invoices, build sheets, dealer ledgers, and dated photographs that a decent idea of serial number ranges can at least get us in the ball park.
You will read in many places that no serial number lists exist prior to the fire at the Schwinn factory in August of 1948. Rather than replicate what can be found on the internet in a variety of places I’m just going to offer some prewar information along with some other observations to help locate and approximately date a bike.
