19?? Monark (ID Help)

Finally riding a big boys bike
Hey all! Can anyone help with a year on this Monark? Looks like it had a number plate on the bottom bracket but is long gone now. I will be looking for any of the original missing parts like rack, light and fender ornament after I get this wonderful repaint off?, if anybody might have these. Any and all help is appreciated. Thx

Prolly mid-late 40's to mid 50's, but still a nice, heavy ride. I had one like it last summer.
 
The Monark Super Deluxe never came with a fender ornament. Your bike looks to be 1948 - 1950 because of the horn button mounted on the right side of the tank. Here is what the correct rack would look like. There are 2 different lights for the Monark Super Deluxe the pedestal light from 1946 - 1949 and the train light was used from 1950 onward.

Interesting. Thank you guys for the info. My first almost complete Monark so I’m looking for that rack and possibly pedestal light.
