Product Description
This elaborate brass with enamel headbadge was found on 1950's and 1960's Condor Cycles models built by legendary master framebuilder Bill Hurlow such as the top of the range W.B.H. No 1, Superbe, WBH No 3, Fleur de Lis and Italia. By the 70's they went to decals instead of head badges. The badge depicts a large bird of prey atop a shield surrounded by wreaths/vines.
