Serial Number: 60 1988 1
I've been looking for a Vent Noir for a long time, it finally arrived a week or so ago. I found it on the Indiana Craigslist and queried whether the owner would be willing to ship. He was and he made sure it was carefully and professionally packed. Other than me switching out the saddle for a Brooks Pro, it arrived in the same condition it appears in the photos. I didn't even need to wipe it down or dust it off.
More photos available on my A-D blog:

Due to the heavy rain we've had I was lucky enough to take advantage of the reflections in the water, as I did when I photographed my Ultima.
