"The Best Gift of All"

I like that the bicycle is said to be "right up to the minute." The prices seem quite reasonable.

Times Boy and bicycle 1921
The ad is from the same period as this bike, the early 20s

Note headlight connected to battery under one of the two top tubes, horn, and tire pump. Pretty nice.
