Rebulding an Austro-Daimler, anyone know anything about it?

Hey, I got this Austro-Daimler frame at a bike shop in Philly and I'm working on building it back up. When I got it, someone in their infinite wisdom had decided to spray paint the frame lime green, right over the original paint job. Idiot. Given the condition of both of the paint jobs, there wasn't much choice but to strip it down and re-paint it. At least it uncovered some original chroming on the seat and chainstays.

Anyway, not my point.

I'm not a mechanic, and I don;t claim to be, and I'm having trouble figuring out what bottom bracket I need to get to put in this frame. Pretty much everything else I can figure out what sizes I need, but this one I just don;t know. Anybody have any suggestions about it?
