1913 ? Sears Master bicycle

[Wxyz1161]

I have an old bicycle with what appears to be an original leather seat, an oil lantern mounted on the front fork, and wooden wheels with solid rubber tires. Someone suggested it Is a 1913 Sears Master. I have no idea how to determine it’s age.
It appears to be entirely original, except someone painted the Master name plate mounted on the front frame.
I would really like to know more about the bicycle. Please respond if you can help.
