We used to make things in this country # 112; SCP bicycles

Another basic transportation bicycle with not much to distinguish it from any other mid-century man's bicycle, but I hadn't seen that badge before.
 Standard Cycle Products was a Toronto company, in existence from about 1930 to 1961, at one time located near Carlaw & Dundas, later at 600 Victoria Pk.  It appears that sometime during the war years or shortly thereafter, CCM acquired the company, and continued to sell bikes under the SCP badge.
