Monark built, Trophy Frame, Can anyone tell me about it?

[firstyearchevelle]

I picked this up a few weeks ago. Can't find much info on Trophy bikes. Skiptooth chain and crank, I don't know if any of the parts are original to the frame. Plate on BB reads: Model no. 3106, Serial no. A008923. Any help would be appreciated (age, built by etc.) Thanks

I believe that those Trophy badges came on Monark built frames.

Yep, Monark used a nameplate on the BB. Here's an example:

I believe your chain ring is Huffman made.

Serials starting with A01 are supposed to be 1947, so it may be a early postwar bike. I'll see if I can find something more definite.
