Schwinn dealers info: Bushey's Schwinn in Lemoyne Pa

[rickpaulos]

Photos of Schwinn dealer stickers on any brands bikes sold by Schwinn dealers. Leads to more information about Schwinn dealers everywhere.  Surely far to many to ever account for all of them. IMO, the decals on bikes are the starting point.
I may also include photos of the store, then or now (google street view).

I think Schwinn Dealers could get it's own category.

First up.
Bushey's Schwinn Lemoyne Pa (or Penna or Pennsylvania).
the address on the decal is mostly obliterated.  Looks like it ends in "er St"
amazing patina on a Peugeot road bike frame from the 1970s.
found an advert on ebay showing Bob Farver Proprietor.  Address 132 Bosler Ave Lemoyne Pa.  That address shows up on google as a residential neighborhood. *

Another address found is 254 Lother which is now a railing business. Building looks like it would have been good for bike sales.

* a note about older addresses.  Some time in the past, the city (not the Post Office) renumbered houses in town.  My neighbors house has one address on the mailbox and another on the circuit breaker in the basement put on by the electricians when the house was built in the 1950s.  AFAIK, many cities renumbered houses or changed street names to famous people or to realign them.

I had to look up Lemoyne PA. I never heard of it before. Apparently it is south of Harrisburg on the west side of the Susquehanna river near Enola which is a huge railyard.
