So far, I've learned that it's a New World Schwinn model produced in either 1952 or 1957. The model number I found on the frame beneath the pedals is: D19494

It's a three speed and everything appears to still function as it should.

I have photos, but I can't upload them since I'm a new user. If you'd like to see the bike let me know and I can figure out how to send you the photos.

What do you all think?

I think we need more pics after you get your post count up, 5 X 2 days for 10 plz.
