Found a Bicycle

[kurt-ks]

Hello All, Can anyone give me a clue to how old this bike would be? I found (saved)it from a tree row by an old farm place today while shed hunting.Asked the owner what he wanted for it and he said load it up its yours I thought it looked pretty cool but wife doesn't think so That's OK I wont let her ride it after I resore it I also found a 31 Chevy sedan there but owner has to ask relative about selling it.It has been there for so long a tree is growing up through the rear bumper,anyway the bike has a tag on it that says Century cycle co. Thanks for looking--HH

Nice find. Back in my younger days the fellows would turn the handlebars upside down, for a cool look. By the way, the second picture, love the dog's look.

Looks to be a 1950's bike, nice find and good work rescuing it. Those old cruisers are really cool. I have an old Schwinn I'd like to restore one day.
