Here’s an update on the one I bought last photo was it’s condition anyone fully restored one yet trying to find original seat and grips

This one showed up on Instagram. I inquired about the serial. Rear facing drops, so that puts it 1939-40?

@RustyHornet I can't tell for sure if that's a Superior or New World with that lousy picture. It does actually appear to have the removable seat post clamp and the Superior/Paramount horizontal slot rear fork end, so I'm leaning towards a 1939 Superior. The drop outs started in 1940.

That would be a 39 Superior, three digit number. The tubing is also larger, and if there is a head badge it would have Superior at the bottom.
