Thanks to everyone who wrote to tell me that was a Raleigh Record Ace frame-set . And again , sorry I didn't happen to see it earlier , with more time remaining on the auction .

I knew when I saw the paint colors that I SHOULD have remembered what model that one was .

I had totally forgotten that the 1973 re-incarnation of the R. R. A. used Campagnolo vertical dropouts . Thanks for setting me straight . ( and thanks for mentioning the "nervous Nervez" lugs ! :^)

And here's the C. R. link , for more information on the 1973 R. R. A. ( lovely photos ! ) :

Now here's one you don't see everyday .

Could someone please explain which model this is ?

A Raleigh ( with the bold print downtube decal , not the earlier cursive script ) - built with Campagnolo vertical dropouts ??

The auction closes VERY soon . Sorry about that . I just saw it myself .

And a warning - the description on the auction page will make you wince , from the mistakes it contains . But , it's a very interesting frame-set !
