I live for the CABE
Met a guy at an Auto Swap Meet today ... said he had some old bicycles at home that he is looking to sell, I stopped on by his place and looked at some of his collection, mostly lightweights, few Schwinn's & some misc. parts.
I bought a pink 1977 Schwinn 20" Fairlady and this patina'd Rollfast bicycle and some parts, didn't pay much for the lot, But I have no idea about the Rollfast ... year, model or where to find serial number ... what do I have here?
Has a New Departure rear hub, skip link chain & sprocket, new set of Fat Frank tires.

Looks like a late 1940’s to early 1950’s model.
The serial numbers should be stamped on the seat tube mast, consisting of a letter followed by six digits.
A date-place code should be stamped on the bottom bracket crank hanger.

Could not find or see even a single marking.

Looking again at the rear fork ends, early post war seems more likely, ~1946?

The post war serial numbers are usually about six inches below the seat post clamp; mostly on the right hand side.
I'm not familiar with this bicycle make, so I really appreciate the guidance on this one. Here are some photos of what I found this morning ... Numbers ... B269218
It looks like there is something after the last number but I can't make it out.
