Congratulations! I lusted after the Raleigh Professional and International when shopping for my first bike as a teenager in 1974.
In the 1973 and 1974 catalog pictures for the International, the fork bend has a graceful sweep that began pretty near the front hub (starting maybe two thirds of the way between the fork crown and the fork dropouts).

In your pictures, the fork bend looks more like a dog-leg that begins about half way down the fork, with mostly straight sections before and after.
Did the bend of the fork change in a particular model year? Or did Raleigh use a variety of different forks on the International in any one year like 1973 and 1974, (bike boom years when they were scrambling to meet demand)?
