I've had a few messages from
@Arfsaidthebee about the New Worlds in his collection. He has 5 of these beauties and sent pics and info that I'm adding to the thread.
Here are some great pics he took of his 23" black wartime bike with blackout braces that we had in the chart above. It is serial J08200:
EF BB
Also has blackout ND Big Arm = Brake coaster and came with 'War Tire" marked tires. Really neat victory bike!
Arfsaidthebee also has two 1948 New Worlds. This one is so clean! Serial number E60020 No blackout parts, EF BB, bought from
@Larmo63
This looks like another 1948 that has a few missing parts and modifications but the frame and braces are post war. EF BB with serial E20400 is in that 1948 zone.
Arfsaidthebee also has two interesting blue New Worlds that are pre/wartime.
Serial number D54422, Schwinn Superior rims, Whirlwind rear tire, blackout rear sprocket, front/rear brakes, wire braces in rear, locking fork
NOT EF BB:
The Blackout rear sprocket is odd. The D serial and NOT EF BB and rest of the bike make me think it is a 1940, but why use a blackout sprocket in 1940? Rear hub is a 3-sp Sturmey Archer (not blackout). Also has a locking fork.
