The green one appears to be a Monark with a Rocket style frame. Nice find with the springer. Gary

Thanks Gary, with the shaker can paint job they came with, think its time to "Rat" them out. 8)

All 3 seem to have Monark sprockets.

Bike 1 is a Spiegel Airman

They are Monark built for the Spiegel Magazine and badged Spiegel.

Here are my two Spiegel Airmen.
The Red one has the wrong sprocket and should have one like yours.

Nice finds!!

seems to me that the green monark might be a rare 24 inch springer bike it seems smaller then most frames and the curving of the top tube matchs 24 inch monarks.
