Nice Postwar Black Schwinn DX(?) in NY

What is/was the asking price?

Actually a "B" model bike, not a Hornet, but a "fat bar" that could have been built up as a deluxe Autocycle...
most likely early postwar... Big difference between Schwinns B model line and D
Nice amateur effort to bring that bike somewhat... price is not out of line for the bike and the effort

So Schwinn has this model number wrong in the catalog by calling a D-12? I think the model numbers changed at some point post war and the B was dropped and the DX frames and straight bar frames were D models in 1950.

No ...my reply was to Kevin Brick (comparison) post featuring a restored B model bike on Ebay...(erroneously titled DX on ebay)
not the above hornet D model... or OP bike
