Phil, Many thanks for pointing this one out. I am positive that this is a frame that was hanging up In Wilson's shop in Birmingham for several years. Sure I saw this sitting in their in 1964. I went to Birmingham Printing School on block release for 10 weeks in January and February of 1964, trade induction. Went into the shop most days and as I had never seen a Hetchins like this before with these lugsit stuck in my mind. I was in Seven Sisters all the time and I never saw the blank lugs of this frame on display in the lug case there. That's why I remember it. It appears to have no rivets in the headbadge? Got its stiffeners on the track ends though. Be nice to know what the Hetchins lads make of this as they seem to think I am a tosser and don't know what I am talking about. at least I was cycling then and not caring it everywhere. ATB Mick B.
