1954 Columbia?

Look Ma, No Hands!
My uncle dropped this one off to me over the weekend! It belonged to his uncle who I believe got it brand new. He had some disabilities so I believe that’s the reason it’s a step through frame. It’s a really neat piece! I plan to swap the pedals,seat and grips back to what they should be, give it a good clean up, get the light and horn working. I believe the year to be 1954? Please correct me if I’m wrong, thanks!

That’s what I came up with for a number on the left dropout

I would have to say somewhere around '55 or 56. I have a '51 guys frame but I am about 80 miles from it 1 way. There wasn't much of the original paint under the house job but I could give you the #s if I was or the next time I am at it. I believe I also have a later '56-58 24" guys frame with a built in kickstand. I need to get my #s together of what I own & some pics but very little of them were original or complete unmixed cheap projects.
