Help with ID please. Possibly prewar Hawthorne.

Any help on additional info on this bike is appreciated.These are the only pictures I have. Will be checking out in person Wed. Don’t know Serial #. Was told it’s a Hawthorne but not sure. Thanks!

Looks like the chainring's Hawthorne and the Hawthorne badge with the wings on it.

Bike built by CWC, I believe, but they built lots of bikes for Wards, so that fits. Shawn's website has some good pictures to tell whether it's pre-war or post-war. @Freqman1

The serial number should help figure out the year. As stated, CWC. Im thinking postwar.
