Hmm. Both the three-speed Raleigh that my father bought for my older  
brother and the Rudge he bought for me, both about when we were 9 or  
so, had full fenders and chain guards. That was about about 1963-4,  
if I recall correctly. Being modern yutes, we tore those fenders and  
chain guards off ASAP...

Not quite WWII vintage but over forty years ago!
