More please!
Looks very similar to one I had done up for Mrs T. Carlton Continental.
Her's is a 1959, the serial number was on the BB, IIRC. Fortunately, 1959 was AFTER Raliegh took over, so the decoding the serial number (and finding it in the first place) was easy. Yours may well be pre-Raliegh. Spkesmann/Mike is probably your best bet, though (his site does have a handy page for checking out dates of Carlton frames, which was how I worked out the age)
