Need some ID assistance please

[REC]

One of the inlaws bought these two bikes - the one in the back is a Hiawatha, but I don't know what the one in the front is. It has "Rocket" on the tank. Looking for approximate year, manufacturer, and some idea of worth.

Thanks for any help on this.

The Hiawath appears to be early 50s version of WF Super. Missing the scarce headlight. Most value would be in parts for a boys Hiawatha if it has the right guard still on it and tail light--maybe $150. Like Keith said Rocket is lower tier Monark and maybe $75. V/r Shawn

The boy's deluxe model looks like this:

If you wish to pin down the year of your's look in under the " Bicycle Restoration Tips" . You will find the Monark Serial Numbers that list the corresponding year.
Turn your bike upside down and there should be a small metal tag riveted to the underside of the bottom bracket.
It will list the model and serial number.
