B&H Flyer, age check?

Hi all, friend of mine stumbled onto this B&H Flyer, according to the parking stickers it has to be pre 1951.

He spent some time telling me it was a schwinn then told me the serial which sent us off in a completely wrong direction...
Does anyone know how to determine the date from the serial or just know from looking at these pics?

Cool bike! I've never heard of B&H bicycles before this post.

D.P Harris was the main manufacture, at some point Baker took it over, thus becoming B&H.

Bumped from the dead, friend and I are still stumped. Appears to have a New Departure type D rear coaster hub.
