This frame I am positive is the one I used to see outside Cliff Pratts shop
in Hull. This would be circa 1966 when my club was pot hunting in this area.
Me I was driving the club car and touring by bicycle in the wonderful
Yorkshire Wolds.
There is an awful lot of gonads (not allowed to use the real word) talked
about Hetchins copies etc.
Think this unfortunately applies to this one. Original yes and the real dogs
whatevers.

I can say that this frame appears on the Hetchins register as having been supplied to the Cliff Pratt shop on the 14th December 1965. Well done to Mick and his great memory.
