At first I was chagrined by that Raleigh Pro price the other day discussed on the list, but Aldos question prompts me to admit my own Christmas eve fit of craziness. I (with Santa watching on) paid way too much for this pretty Tommassini pantographed crank ! (sorry about that if you were one of the other bidders)

the lower-right picture: *http://tinyurl.com/8rx77 * btw - I contacted Norman Hellman (thanks Mike) - he remembers some of the details I mentioned, but has no early Tommasini's for photos. Thanks everyone for the clues on the Tom'bike though ! I'm pressing on with two other great suggestions to pursue.
