Keith Wood, 75 North Rd, West Bridgford. Two frames are Keith Wood's, 81114 and 81129, and the finish separates them: this sheet is sky blue enamel with a red flamboyant head tube and pearl green forks, which is 81114's ledger entry word for word. 81129 has no finish recorded and 700c wheels against this sheet's 27s.

In the book

The same frame in the bound ledger

Through 1982 the workshop kept two records of an order: a line in the bound book, and the printed sheet above. Both give this frame the same number and the same date. The book is the shorter of the two and the only one written in the shop itself.
