Subject: [Classicrendezvous] Need help with prewar bikes

I have a couple of bikes that I would like some help identifying.

This bike has a checkerboard Schwinn seat tube decal that I doubt is original, but does have a Paramount sliding stem, BSA headset, cranks and bottom bracket.

This bike is all nickle plated, with "BCCGMANS" stamped on every lug, including the fork crown, BB and dropouts. All BSA components.

Any help would be greatly appreciated in identifying these bikes.
