The rust is recent. That's all I needed to see. Do a search on ebay for that sign and I'm sure there are many! Good Luck and check here b4 you buy to save $Thousands$!
Thats a repop. I see you like Indian. I'm looking for a 1905 - 1906 Thor motorcycle engine. If you happen to know anyone. Indian used the Thor engine until 1907.
I think its a repro. Usually red looking rust indicates it was aged more recently. Also, if you can find a pic of a guaranteed original and compare there is usually less detail in the repros.
Its my understanding that Anything pre 1929 Indian is Motocycle.
Post 1929 is Motorcycle.
Can you confirm this correct or incorrect?
Thanks
If Motocycle is used in conjunction with Indian I.e. Indian Motorcycle is incorrect. It should be Indian Motocycle. But Indian American's Pioneer Motorcycle would be ok.
Looking at old brochures, it seems when your refer to the company itself only you use the word Motocycle and the word motorcycle is acceptable for other applications. Like this 1941 brochure.
