1953 Schwinn New World Traveler $125.00 in Pinole/El Sobrante Cal area Craigslist

This one's tempting. This looks like it could clean up very well. Maybe an AO bath to bring back the paint and rear off the rust.

I suspect earlier than '53 because of the round badge. That was only found on the first years of the traveler ('50-'51). Also that razor neck was also only found on very early Travelers. 21" frame size.

OA bath that thing and see what happens...

@49autocycledeluxe if you get it let me know what the grips look like. I would like to know what oval grip style that is.
