ok, I did it again. I bought something and don't know what it goes to but I couldn't pass it up. has anyone seen these on a bike and if so what kind.

Very Cool. Never seen them before but I've seen similar ones on european bikes.

Similar type on page 62 of "Golden Age of Handbuilt Bicycles" showing a late 40s Maury(french)--says these guards were for city bikes

do you have photos from the book you quote? they are coming from France. I should have them in as long as it takes to get here from there which I'm guessing won't be too quickly

Thanx
