Nice frame and original paint!

Left dropout has nothing?

The Flying Star was made from 55 to 58, but this frame was only in 55 and 56. Did I missed anything?
Nothing I can see on the left dropout, but I need to take the baby seat out and check it closer.

Try looking at the crank set, it might have the date stamped there.

Schwinn went to the left dropout in 53, but Scribble is right, there is a date code on the cranks, on the center part inside the BB. So you'll have to pull the cranks to see it, should be a 2 digit code for the last 2 digits of the year, 56-58 in your case.
