What make and around what year is this gem?
This is my dad around 17 to 21yrs of age he was born in 1930 just passed this year and I would love to get a bike like this or maybe the red one I am working on is the same type of bike ? Only mine is missing the front 2 fork bars ? Please help, Thanks

Sorry for your loss. The bike in the photo of your dad looks like it is pre WWII. The bike in the stand is post WWII.

Ok thanks, so are they the same make and /or model?

They both look to have balloon tires.
The B/W photographed bike has a rear drop stand, and a straight down tube (from head tube to bottom bracket).
