Shelby-badged Serial Numbers-Prewar

Excelsior made possibly if that particular chainring is original to the bike, but yes not Shelby.

Ok thank you for the reply. There is a bicycle with similar chainring badged Flash on this thread posted July of last year which led me to believe this may also be a Shelby. I appreciate the information.
 
I believe I did. That serial doesn’t look Shelby to me. You may consider positively identifying the bike before posting in marque specific threads.
Ok thank you. I haven't figured out how to delete a post yet, is that possible?
 
Need some help with determining the year on this one, I think it's a Shelby. Best I can tell from the serial number is E5761? Thanks!

Looks like a late-1920’s to early-1930’s Shelby Speedway Special; the early 5-digits serial might be either E or F—57,610?

Not a lot of examples of the earlier serial number prefix or year to compare the juvenile bicycle to, (for differences or similarities?).
