Frame

8721

Untraced

A light tourer: OTHER DETAILS reads “Using for light touring”, and the model line gives “Randoneé style” as spelt on the sheet. Delivery is promised “P.D.Q.” and the deposit line reads “YES 9595”, a cross-reference in the same manner as other sheets of this run. The brake maker's name is read as “Red S” from a fast hand and is not certain; the B.B. set entry runs off the right-hand edge of the scan after “Doub—”.
