Unusual flared fenders, does anyone recognize these?

I have seen these on earlier motorbikes but I can't remember the manufacturer. Does anyone know or have information on them? Thanks!

Those are newer, I believe Electra or Dyno or one of those type cruisers

Thank you, someone decided to add them to a antique Elgin. I wasn't sure if they were original.

Yep usually called Duck tail fenders. They're nice placement holders but not original

Actually most of us call these skirted fenders. Duck tail type fenders are found on a lot of bikes--including Donald Ducks! V/r Shawn

Ok so what is the actual difference if any? I have just always heard them called Duck tail which kinda doesn't make a lot of sense in it's self or at least to me.

A skirted fender can have a duck tail but all (most) ducktail fenders do not have skirts. V/r Shawn
