1930s Elgin

-
Hi Robert, @Junkman Bob

(Sorry @piercer_99 ...)

D3 is a frame made in March 1937.

Piercer is right, there should be another number on the BB beginning with B and five or possibly six numbers following. Very occasionally there isn't one, and that indicates a replacement frame supplied new from the factory.

Best Regards,

Adrian
 
As to the model, since it's an Elgin it was sold through the Sears catalogue. Here is a page from 1936, I imagine there's no material difference between your 37 and the one in the bottom left corner, so a 6DM5021.
