Hello , Good Morning All ,

I was not ready for the off-list e-mail I received . Again , I'm leaving town tomorrow morn . I'll sort through the stems & racks when I get back . I have your names , in order . Please remember - there's not much to sell - there's no real selection - you may not want the unpainted item - Norman Taylor may easily be able to make you a better one anyway . But , I will sort through what I have . I do NOT have anything else to sell , NO frames , NO decals . Thanks for asking , but I have nothing else to sell . Sorry . Again , Mark Lawrence helped out Norman Taylor , and then Mark went on to other places and other things . I would give you his current e-mail address ( he's kept me current with his e-mail address changes ) , EXCEPT , he sent out an e-mail many months ago which explained that he was no longer involved with Norman Taylor's bicycle parts . The main reasons Mark was helping Norman were , Norman does not do e-mail , Norman is not comfortable doing business by telephone . So , Mark enjoyed being the go-between , and dealing with international information exchange . Again , the ONLY contact information I ever had for Mr. Norman Taylor , was the return address on the one ( 1 ) letter which he sent directly to me . Yes , of course I still have it . Finding it will take me some time ( I'm still sorting things from moving 1,000 miles - no fun ) . But , Stockton-On-Tees can't be that large . Even if you just found the correct Postal Code for the town , and sent it to Norman Taylor , Stockton-On-Tees , it'd stand a good chance of getting there . YES , Mark Lawrence was , and is , a real person !! YES , Norman Taylor was , and is , a real person !! NO , this was NOT any sort of "scam" !! If you don't believe me , ask Mr. Dale Brown , Cycles de Oro , Inc . And please , please , remember , Mr. Dale Brown has dealt directly with Mr. Norman Taylor !! If you want , or need , to know how to contact Mr. Norman Taylor , Mr. Dale Brown has much more experience than I have . Finally , I'm a tiny bit disappointed , but not at all surprised , to learn that my frame is now NOT the final and last frame shipped out of "Taylor Brothers Cycles" . Meanwhile , I'm happy for both Norman and Dale , that Norman can still whip together something made of steel . Dale , sorry to read of your frustrations . Believe me , I understand and empathize . Dale Brown bought a custom-specification ( although Norman builds 'em they way he feels like building 'em ) Jack Taylor frame , AFTER the final , close-out , clearance sale . You might want to ask Dale , nicely please , not everyone at once please , if he has more current contact information than I do .

Thank you for all of your e-mails . I wish I had more time , right this minute . But , I gotta go ! Be back in a week or so .

Most of all , thanks for such a WONDERFUL resource . The C.R. List is terrific !
