Untraced

No address and no dates appear anywhere on the sheet, so the year is omitted. The name is the shop's own surname, though the sheet itself says nothing more. “531C 700C FASTBACK” is written across the head. The headset was amended: “STD” struck out and what reads as “MAVIL ALLOY” written beside it, presumably Mavic, though it is transcribed as written. “Allow xtra length” is written above the headset line. No finish or transfers are recorded.
