I have two pairs at home. Pulled one off a 1960s Raleigh Record I sold on eBay in 2017/2018, won the other on fleabay at a higher price than I'd have liked, shipped from UK. both are shorties, vintage, not sure on brand. Will snap some pics when I get back to the house.
Friend bought the project I intended to install the auction pair on, other pair was a "freebie" relatively speaking so I'm cool to part with one or the other.

I suppose you could always pick up some cheap full fenders and cut them down.

I've been influenced by a UK facebook group that posts a lot of pics of vintage bikes with shorty fenders. The Wald fenders look great on Schwinns but on my Raleigh a euro product is what I am looking for. That being said I did order a set of SKS full length fenders today. Function over fashion as its been quite wet in the midwest this September. I might still be interested in the shortys if its a good deal.

Here's what I found with minimal digging. I know w/o doubt I have another pair, but having difficulty finding them. Obviously they're not cleaned up and definitely not perfect...
Not sure if this is remotely what you're looking for, but if you are, LMK.
