Thank you guys! @dogdart thank you for the info on the Feller pic. I did not have a date associated with that one. Are these pics of the older fork mounted lights with the smaller bezel that were fed from the tank?:

Maybe this one too?

Yes. That style was short lived. The ball light with enclosed batteries was used through probably the mid 50s. There are a couple different styles of switches used

Thanks again @dogdart Yea. I was wondering about that. I thought I had seen one with a switch on the top of the light. Wasn’t sure if that was added later or OG. Sounds like it could be original.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge of, and pictures of, so many of the CWC bikes you’ve owned.

Hawthorne from @RidinRelics with the older tank fed light with the thin bezel, or maybe a slightly longer looking light:
