Excerpt from the seller's detailed ad copy:
Made in England by one of the world’s master frame builders, Ron Cooper (1932 to 2012). Ron was at A.S. Gillott Cycles of London until early 1970’s when he set up his own shop in Honor Oak Park (south London). This is where I bought the bike in 1976.

At $1,800 you should be able to take your time. At that price, I can’t imagine it sells locally anyway. Course, there was the Rivendell Bleriot listed over the weekend that I was sure was priced too high. That seemed to disappear quickly. I guess you never know.
