Frame:
My sense is that this vintage frame is classic 70’s Italian, because of the Italian Campagnolo Dropouts, Wide Tire Clearance (Frame can fit tires up to 700x35c), Italian Campagnolo Headset, Italian Campagnolo Cable Guide, nicely shaped fork crown, Chrome Lugs, Chrome Fork Tips, and a Chrome Rear Triangle.

(Townie sizing is comparable to 54cm 55cm 56cm 57cm roadbike sizing range)
Best described as a “Fun Upright Comfy Cruiser Fit”
