Little Broken Bike

i.e.

Auto-Mini

Made In Austria

_______________

The rack is
Made By PLETSCHER of Switzerland.

Condition:

Lightly rusted.

An aunt of the family bought this bike upon retiring
--did not live long enough to ride it
much.

It has been in barn storage since then,
slowly gathering oxidizing particles of moisture.

According to the
(always true as god)
auctioneer,
it is one of the
earliest versions
of Little Broken Bikes.

Age?: Only the wise collector would know.

The back tire holds air,
the front does not.

Truly,

Just Businessman

Guest Opinions as to Items Possible Uses:

'Ride the Auto-Mini to work & fold this little baby up;
snuggle it in your cubicle,
tuck 'er under your desk
with plenty of leftover legroom.

'Far classier than a Yugo!'
