The most intersting picture is that of the seat lug and seat stay top treatment... That big old lumpy cast lug and then the odd seat stay top.. it looks like it was shaped as an open tube end then folded over on itself and brazed! Very unique!

Interesting bike, I had never seen one before.

That top head tube lug looks like a Cinelli, and the GF+ bottom bracket has been used on Cinelli bikes also (I have one with one).

Hope there is more discussion about this bike.
