I worked at the Proteus shop in Glen Echo, MD and in College Park in the early 90s, and always enjoyed digging through the old framebuilding materials (lugsets, tubing, stuff leftover from Yamaguchi, the Proteus Framebuilding Manual) and have been on the lookout for a frame in my size ever since. Sad to see this one munged through the death of a rodent. Such lack of respect amongst the lower mammals!
