1969 Schwinn Bikes Dealer Catalog: Black Binder - Heavy Paramount & Stingray Content - 74p

This dealer catalog is part of the famous Black Binder series from the late 60's and early 1970's.  (note, the binder is a "Parts" binder instead of the "Bikes" like on our 1968 catalog) These dealer bicycle catalogs are by far the most detailed of all the bike catalogs and brochures.  It dedicates a full page to each model, and to each sub model (each of the Paramount models get two pages per model!)  All stock components are listed with model names, down to kickstands, cables, and name plates!  It essentially doubles as a parts and accessories catalog.

There is about 10 pages dedicated to the Paramount, and 17 to the Stingray! The Paramount model pages are preceeded by some pretty special sections on the various Paramount geometry offered, frame sizing and options offered, and component choices. 

*All of these collectibles came from a closed Schwinn dealer called Kings Cyclery in Casper, Wyoming that I bought out.  Everything was ordered directly from the Schwinn factory. 

Condition

Catalog is near mint. The only rear wear is a dirt stain on the inner blue cover, and the tabs are worn.  Otherwise, no wear to note.  Binder is great to excellent with light wear.
