It is a Clubman from the 50's.

Lucky find! Those are great and not terribly common in the US.

Not mine, somebody asked me if I want to buy.
I have no idea of the price. I saw on ebay two of them, the one similar is 900, listed not sold.
I am not sure if he wants to sell or wants to got an idea about the value.
I asked for more pictures. Next week maybe.

that's a pretty good picture...

That silver indent in the fork is for a locking key but they seem to be rare.

 

[bulldog1935]

the fork crown was a segment of tubing, which did make for a good optional lock barrel.

That Sure Sta stand clamped on a Reynolds frame is a painful sight. There's bound to be damage there.

 

[bulldog1935]

Looks like an Esge properly clamped in the stiffest spot on the frame, between bottom bracket shell and chainstay bridge - if there is damage, it's likely limited to the paint.

But I always make a point to pad mine - current Esge/Pletscher makes top-side polymer clamps with a longer bolt, and I always gorilla-blue closed-cell foam to the bottom side clamp plate. (I'll crop out a photo and throw it up this afternoon...)

It's an aftermarket Shure Sta. An ESGE is a good stand and perfectly at home on a 2030 framed bike, but 531 framed Clubmans never came with kickstands and damaging the chain stays with one will lower it's appeal and value.

probably right then, I can't find anything on sure sta, but I'm guessing it's a cheap Esge knock-off...
