Prewar CWC rainbow frame hang tank bicycle count

How many are out there?
I'm new to The Cabe but not new to collecting prewar bicycles. In my almost 30 years of collecting, I have only seen four examples of this bicycle, and that includes my bicycle. Why are the numbers so low compared to the similar rainbow framed Rollfast/Hawthorne/Snyder?

I have never seen any printed advertisements or catalogs depicting this bicycle either. I'm sure it's out there though.

This thread is dedicated to the prewar Cleveland Welding Company rainbow frame "Hang tank" bicycle I believe made during the years of 36-38 ? and all the ones that I have seen are badged differently.

The earlier version 1935 CWC rainbow frame had the top tubes closer together "no tank". Please only post the "tank" version.

I welcome any comments or corrections on this thread by anyone with more knowledge regarding this bicycle.

All that being said, lets post them up! Pictures and literature........ I will start with my CWC.

Thanks, I too dig this bicycle. Many bikes have come and gone but this one I would never part with. I've owned it for almost 30 years now..

That one I got from you was a DP Harris. That was over 15 years ago. The Road Master I bought last May, and sold in June.
