There is surprisingly little rust, except for the front rim, which is pretty far gone.

Raleigh Lenton Sports. It has a 1960 AW hub, but I believe the bike is older, probably from 1951.

It did not go unnoticed. I wish I could stumble on one of those, rhm. Insofar as the color is concerned, I beleive I saw traces of blue green paint in the photos from the other thread - though it seems 95% of it has chalked off, or, been covered with the the grimiest-grime I have ever laid eyes on.

I think I would replace that front wheel - depending on what it looks like inside.
