Tom: I'll get into this discussion later on.
I got good deals yesterday on two Schwinn Paramount, both unrestored with original parts. A full chrome from 1972 and a 1964, coppered coloured, both in show condition.

Re: and not produced under the watchful eye of the Hetchins family is really not a true Hetchins.
Well I sure have seen some older Hetchins that were produced under their Watchful eye that were just schlock. I never have understood how some Hetchins were exquisite and others had workmanship to make a gas pipe bike blush.
Can you explain the wide disparity in quality? They perhaps contracted out some work without careful quality control?
