Alan mentions the Zunow--hummingbird, if I remember right. In the early 1980s, when I saw a Zunow at the local bike shop (Ken's, in Winston-Salem, NC), I thought it the most elegant, well-crafted, and beautiful bicycle I'd seen.
I can't afford anything vintage right now (unless it's at one of those spiffy garage sales they don't have here in Spring Green).
If I could afford it, the first bike I'd buy is a Silk Hope Perfect Pleasure.
But there sure are lots of others I'd lust after anyway!
