Looks like a twin curved bar Huffman or Colson... but smaller? Is that a 20" or maybe 24" wheel frame?

Or am I having an optical illusion?

The serial number is Cleveland Welding, but I thought the Cw stamp was only used from 1947-49. The frame looks late 30's to me.

I think the junior 20"/ 24" lines weren't updated as often as the 26" lines, so maybe they continued the older parallel bar design several years later. -Adam

I was thinking that. I had a 20" Monark from the 50s that had a straight down tube
