Since everyone else is showing their Lentons, here is mine. It has a long touring history with its PO, who was a friend of Ray Florman here in St Louis. As you can see, it has been modified with a Simplex rear derailleur. I purchased it from Raymond (Ray's son) and it is in the process of being refurbished. I really do not want to refinish it as the correct markings are not available. I will have to do something with the TT. I am hoping to resolve that and have it look "old". I have the correct brakes for it and a period correct trigger. Fenders of course are much later. I do not intend to do anything with them other than polishing. Serial places it in 1948.
