I needed to take a look at my Stingray seat stash as I have a few guys inquiring.

It took me years to accumulate these NOS and Mint used seats.

These seats are just like the bikes they were intended for, beautiful.

PERSONS (Charlie Persons) Polo Seat that was intended for various bicycles in the very early 60’s.
This “Solo-Polo” seat became famous when Schwinn decided to use it on their first two years (63, 64) of the Stingray bicycle.

Charlie must have been thrilled when that happened, $$$$.

PERSONS-MAJESTIC MFG. went on to build a huge variety of seats for Schwinn and other brands over several decades.

This NOS Dark Red Polo Seat with seat strut in the box is a one of a kind.
The box is dated 1960, just as the letter describing this ultra rare seat.
