1920's possibly a emblem bike sold to a retailer (rebadged and name on lower part the badge). Tank looks like some one addd it on later. Condition is rough but complete. Light is cool and unusual. Value is to be determined. Weather eBay or here. I like it. Selling let me know.

Agreed on Emblem!! Looks to be a Heavy Service ride. A few details point to Emblem as the manufacturer, the rear drop outs are one, then the chain stays are D shaped which would be a Heavy Service feature as well as the oversize top tube and triple plate fork. I'm thinking if you take the head set apart you will see the fork tube is also oversize. On top of all that it has the Davis stand and pedals which I have seen on some of the Emblems as well. Great find!! If it's looking for parking there is plenty of space here!

Also looks like it has Pierce head set hardware.

Nice! This thing needs a good sympathetic restoration and be put back on the road.
