Raleigh Badge with Rectangles for Text?
Going to recycle this free frame I got, because of two small holes in the tubing that should not be there. Curious to know more about this Raleigh series where the badge is so cheap it just has two rectangles instead of the usual text.

Yes, need pics. I've seen Raleighs from Taiwan, I believe that have slashes at the bottom of the headbadge within the rectangle. Is that what yours looks like?
