That looks much newer than 1961 to me.

That color didn't even exist in crayons until the 1970s. It looks pretty modern to me.

Bikes: one of each

Nawe, it's an early 60s Murray frame, the rear hub is one of those early 70s disk contraptions and the seat and rims are from some modern donor bike.

Very little. $25, maybe $50 if someone I knew had to have it.

$10-15. It's awful blurry. I might throw in $5 for the cat.
