Since Howie Cohen's passing, no items are for sale.
Pettee Cycle Supply Co of Denver, CO was owned by Irwin Hayutin. Irwin`s son, Myles Hayutin worked for the company from a young age. Joe Bernstein was the general manager for many years. Howie was very close with the Hayutin family for many years. Irwin worked closely with my father and helped us (WCCSC) whenever dad requested his assistance. In later years, Pettee & WCCSC did joint purchasing; often times under the American Flyer brand. More about the Pettee-Hayutin-Howie relationship in one of the Stories from Howie. It appears that Myles produced this catalog which has over 280 pages. The Pettee inventory was very complete & included almost everything that a Bicycle Store would need. The dimensions are 10 x 11 3/8 inches. See the picture gallery for copies of a few choice pages.
