Paulie,

Mike was married to Emily K. I met him once when I stopped by to see Emily. Don't know much about his frames, and never saw one. In case you don't know, Emily K made some of the greatest cycling cloths of the time. She pioneered the use of a polyester wool blend that was far more comfortable than all wool and did not itch.
