I have a Claude Butler with the serial number 941947 bought on eBay a couple of years ago. It was advertised as 'around 1948' but I have since seen an online comment that Claudes before 1957 can be dated to their month and year, simply from the serial number. As there is no '8' in my serial number, that would suggest it can't be 1948. Can anyone help with information on the likely date of manufacture - could it perhaps just be the 94th bike built in 1947?
Thanks
Bob
