1936 Henderson at the Rhinebeck Grand National Meet


the newly restored bike was unveiled at the Rhinebeck Grand National Meet. The bike belongs to Frank Westfall from Syracuse, NY. According to some info I found online, the bike was originally built by O. Ray Courtney in 1936 and is based on a 1930 K.J Henderson.
I read somewhere in the post that the gauges were from a Pierce Arrow
Thanks to Chris (of http://chrisoncars.com/ ) for letting me know about this cool bike!

For a bicycle of similar unusual art deco / victorian styling:
