I noticed that your head badge is "Westfeild Mfg Co." The last year for that would have been 1960 as they became "Columbia Mfg Co'" in 1961. Your bike has been parted together with a varitey of parts. The Newsboy never came with a bolt on luggage rack though the one on this bike is one used on 60's Columbia "Special" models. The truss rods and front sprocket are not Columbia. The frame is possibly a 1950 Newsboy as that would have had a serial number that starts with "N" and is the same style. That chain guard would have been used on 1950's Newboys as well. It also has one of the reproduction headlights from the 1986 RX-5 reproduction. Basicaly a frankenbike.
