To identify a Hawthorne bicycle using the serial number located on the wards, you can start by locating the serial number on the bicycle frame. Once you have the serial number, you can contact the manufacturer or a bicycle registry to trace the history and ownership of the bike. This can help verify the authenticity and ownership of the Hawthorne bicycle.
Without more information (model number or description) we cannot give you an answer for certain, however, most of the Hawthorne branded rifles were made for Montgomery Wards stores by the Mossberg Company
Several companies made firearms marked with the Hawthorne and Westernfield Brands of Montgomery Wards. They inlcuded Mossberg and Savage, along with Noble, Colt, Marlin and Winchester. If you will repost with the model number, we may be able to match it to the original make/model.
I got my in 1960 from monkey wards
Mossberg made most of the Hawthorne bolt action shotguns. They were sold as a Montgomery Wards special.
The Hawthorne Warrior M825 .22 LR was sold by Montgomery Wards in 1957 and 1958. It is actually a Mossberg Model 140 rifle.
Hawthorne was made by Crosman for Wards. I suggest looking up on the net under "Air Gun Repair" for someone close to you.
50-125 US Dollars
Blue Book of Gun Values. IIRC, sold by Montgomery Wards and made by Mossberg
Hawthorne was sold through Montgomery Wards. The 820b is actually a Mossberg 320b sold under the Hawthorne trade name. Book value is $20 to $100 US, but they are great little rifles.
The model number of your Wards Western Field.
Looks like Savage built them. Their model SB100B. Hawthorne model name was "Vulcan". Parts are available from Numrich Gun Parts. Good to see someone else owns one.
