Finally riding a big boys bike
I just bought this from a CABE member for a first restoration, it's a Pope but not sure of the exact year or model. I think it's an early 20's Westfield built frame, serial number on the bottom is E51133 and the chain ring says Pope but the head badge is missing. I'm trying to find out all I can about it before it gets here so I can get a good start. Any help you guys can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

Possible a '27 Junior roadster model E-7. Junior didn't mean juvenile as is implies, but just the drop in the top bar to drop the seat tube height slightly for shorter riders.
 
I did look up some serial numbers and as far as I could tell they were from 1927 but I'm still looking. Thanks for the info. Now I need to find some pictures of originals.
 
Ok, Mr Columbia says everything he sees is Consistent with a 1927 junior roadster. My next question is, since it has a Pope chainring, should it have a Pope or a Columbia head badge ?
