Identification/Appraisal help
I received this bicycle from my uncle that passed away and know nothing about bikes personally. Only thing I think I know is that its a western flyer. Any help identifying or appraising this thing would be amazing.

hello and welcome to the forum! ; ^ )
the Western Flyer marque is a house brand for the Western Auto chain of auto supply stores
cycles were manufactured by several different makers through the years
are this your uncle's bike?
another good forum to post at for a bicycle of this type is called thecabe.com
membership there is free and open to all; one must register to post...
uncle's machine appears to have been produced by the Cleveland Welding Co.
based on serial two possible years are 1936 & 1942
