rad ID! (noob)

Hi Guys and Gals!
H.O. here, new to this site and the fascinating world of cast iron radiators.
Can anyone please identify these rads? Each section is about 13 3/8" long and 21" tall.
We just had them removed from our 1920 bungalow in order to redo our floors. These are designed to be wall-hung, but whoever originally installed them just plopped them on the floor (lame!). We intend to refurbish and reinstall them, this time hung off the wall as intended. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks for any help!
