Nice! I would love to find a frame like that for a original/rat project. I have a 46 DX, but it is in nice shape and I don't want to rip it apart.

Good job on the find!
 
I'm surprised to see those graphics on a '52 cantilever frame. I thought that wasn't done until later in the 50's on the Streamliner. I learn something new here every day. 8) Gary

I have one with the feathering as well that still has it's Wasp decal. I think that is the scheme for the "unequipped" models.
