It's a little too far for me to get it or check it out, but looks like it's in good shape.
Cute bike, but this one isn't a mixte. Mixtes have 3 stays in the back. I had a Schwinn Suburban and while it wasn't a mixte, it certainly was fun. Biggest drawback to these Schwinns is that they are really really heavy! If you want a mixte keep looking. They are out there and most of the time they aren't called mixtes. I found a Nishiki for $40 and love it. Took awhile, but I finally found her. Good luck on your search!
