My unusual frame has no apparent frame number, but was decalled a Claud Butler in 1962 when I bought it in N London (aged 15). Now there is some doubt about it being a CB at all.

I have just taken the forks out and found a number on the steerer tube which is (low down) 19491, and half way up is stamped W82 (both orientated longditudinally)
Does anyone have any info that might help track down the make of this frame, ? a CB special order or perhaps not a CB at all. I can't find anything that helps online.
I assume the number might mean it is a late 40's or 50's frame.
This is becoming a little obsessional, so any help would be gratefully received,
Thank in advance
