Gambles Hiawatha Tricycle Made by Murray
Q: I recently purchased a Gambles tricycle. The label has Gambles on it along with the name of the trike that I can’t quite make out. Any idea’s where I can find information on it?
A: Your tricycle is a circa 1950′s Hiawatha tricycle made for sale in Gambles Hardware Stores. Your tricycle was made by Murray (you can even see that they used Murray hubcaps). Hiawatha tricycles and bicycles were made by a number of different makers. It was common with hardware and department stores to have manufacturers make tricycles and relabel them under their own brand name. Western Auto is probably the most common company to do this, with their Western Flyer tricycles and bicycles being made by AMF, Murray and others.
