New Mexico Brant

Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
What is the earliest documented bicycle with stainless steel rain gutter fenders? What year do these fenders first show up in the print literature?

Thank you for your input! Kindly, Brant
 
I suppose they could have pre-dated balloon tire bikes but Schwinn first describes them in 1934. On the '33 B10E the fenders were listed as "chromium plated". I haven't looked at H.P. Snyder, Colson, or the other likely suspects to see what they used for '33. V/r Shawn
 
Oooh now I'm intrigued. You got a picture of this bike?

I have at least 2 prs of decent SS 28" fenders if any one needs them, the Brooklyn pr has built in drop stand attached.
