Description
Originally manufactured by the S.L. Company, the \"flexible flyer\" was a new design for steerable wooden sleds that debuted in the early 20th century. The company released several series of sleds, refining the new design with every new release.The Airline series was the last major release of the flexible flyer sleds. The Airline sleds (also known as the H series) came out in 1935 with the ends of the runners turned back to the top of the last cross support. This major change was meant to prevent other sledders from impaling themselves on the sharp end of another\'s sled when running into them. There were numerous Airline models, each with its own name: Ace (37\"); Pilot (41\"); Patrol (44\"); Pursuit (47\"); Junior (51\"); Chief (55\"); Racer (60\"); Cruiser (65\"); and (108\"). A staple of nostalgic winter recreation, the Flexible Flyer Sled is a throwback item that can be collected or used.
Condition
The sled is in great structural condition, however it has wear from use, with logos fading. Authenticity confirmed by the Flexible Flyer branding on the bottom of the sled.
