This is what I fond a couple of years back in someone's trash, sadly the fenders had been painted but otherwise everything looks orginal (CCM Badge on front):
Here are the pages from an old catalogue that helped me Identify what it was.

Hello Doreen Jamie here in Brantford.If you get a chance put up some photos of your model 52 and start the frenzy.I have a model 51 that was restored by the late Great Ron Mellen of London.I really get a charge when ever a childs bike is found from that era as most were tossed long ago.Best Regards
I will post a picture as soon as I can. I think it is in pretty good shape but I am not a collector so I don't know what to look for. Can I post pictures here or should I use photobucket?
It is a #52 Cyclet, isn't it? Is there any serial number anywhere to date it? The seat looks different than the original and there is no stand. Would you consider it to be in good condition?
yeah it's a # 52 alright. Looks like somebody tried to recover the seat and it's missing the stand and handle grips, but other than that it's in good condition. Have you sold it yet?
That is really neat lookin! I wouldn't mind finding one of those!

Looks like its missing the front rod brake.
Would anyone have any idea what #52 Cyclet would be worth? I have one that I am thinking of selling.
What kind of condition is it in?

Probably easiest to use photobucket when posting in a comment.
Not sure if any of the html worked, you might have to copy and paste into your browser.

No, depending on the value I will either list it on Ebay or donate it to our local bike shop.
Jamie do you have a picture of your restoration? I would love to see it.
