Hello Dave,your bike should be a CCM Brantford Redbird approximately 1910 - 1915, by the looks of the crank.Fenders are not of the style used that year.The rims were likely wood.The missing badge should say Brantford Redbird Toronto,not just Redbird.The fork crowns are the easiest way normally to help identify the model,the early CCM bikes all had their own distinctive fork.Looks to be a 22" tall frame.Good Luck with it,its a Great survivor.Take Good Care Jamie
thx

The badge should look like this one on my CCM Brantford No.514, which is close to yours (506).
Fenders originally looked like this:
