The frame number starts with a K, so it dates from 1940/41. The original brake handles were still there, but were no longer connected to brakes. It is a model E, frame height 65 cm.

English translation: "The name Fongers is a garantue for quality The materials used for Fongers bicycles are selected with care. For all our bicycles the best material, that is available, is used, so that we can garantue the reliability and solidity of our entire product. The Groningen [province in the Netherlands] Bicycle Company A. Fongers. The form of the frame of Fongers bicycles and the angle of the fork, in relation to the bend of it, make that they are lightly steerable and also bounce and shake very little on bad roads. A bad road becomes good on a Fongers." The English is perhaps a little akward, but so is the original Dutch.
