Woman’s Hawthorne / CWC
Picked this up from a barn in Southwest MI today looking for more information on this bike, year, value potential links to parts and pieces for her or anyone potentially interested in this bike.

It has the earlier 1938-40 patent springer, which was a weaker design, as the fork arms could move in opposite directions. The later design cast or forged the pivoting fork arms as a continuous part, joined at the top.
