This Swift of Birmingham ladies’ bicycle was cherished by the previous owner who had been riding it since the 1990s. It’s fully accessorised and is in first class condition. The transfers (decals) appear to be original, as does the paintwork – the pin-striping is excellent, which is usually a mark of original paint. It’s fitted with a period tennis racket, and there are some tennis balls in the saddlebag.
