Description
This sled is in excellent shape and the paint is completely intact. My grandfather relayed many memories of the races between his friends down the hills of Racine here in Wisconsin during the long winters. He showed me how it was designed to steer with your feet when sitting up or with the rope tied to it correctly you can utilize it to steer also. Lying down steering is easy. He said it was about the fastest, easiest to steer and most coveted sled around at the time. It is a gem.
