Jones Family CS

 Jones Family CS Type 8

Date: 1927

Purchased in Wenatchee, WA 2025, $73

This one was picked up for me by a friend who wrapped it in a blanket and strapped it on the back of his motorcycle to get it home.  Somewhere there's a picture but now I can't find it.  That would make an interesting discussion: things you've carried on your motorcycle.  My list would include, to start, a four foot piece of 4" x 10" and an upright vacuum cleaner.  My friend Eric's list would include my dog Brutus after he passed away (the dog, not Eric) and the body needed to be taken to the vet for storage since I was on vacation.  

Jones made a lot of small changes to their machines which means that a lot of the parts aren't interchangeable, even though the machines look almost identical.  Often the only way to tell them apart is by the different decals.  This one is a Type 8 according to fiddlebase.com.
