1930's Iver Johnson
My grandfather is very active with our local historical society and they had their annual dinner the other night. In the restored house they had it in was this cool old bike. Basic research shows it to be an Iver Johnson Arms and Cycle Works bike. The original owner's son thinks he bought it in 1930. Just thought I'd post some pics for the vintage crowd. Not sure what the model is or the exact year if anyone has any info. Forgot to add the serial number J1436.

Nice! I like the saddle too 
Looks to be a Model 86H Drop Bar Roadster from the 1930's. Serial number is odd, it should be 6 digit numeric. Did the S/N appear to be painted over some, as it looks repainted.
