Saved from the scrapper!

One thing I love is saving a little piece of history from the scrap pile.  A neighbor up the road is a scrapper. Every time I see his truck leave, I watch to see what it comes back filled with.  Mostly junk but once in awhile theres a gem.  Sunday I grabbed these. Both bikes date from the 40's I believe.  The mens  I think is a Monarch and the female is a Elgin.  It still has the the badge.
