dating note -
the model 99 chainset it wears is second generation
change from first to second occurred in 1977
if one takes the cycle to be "all of a piece" it is unlikely to be earlier than 1978

Londoner is the model. Dawes is the manufacturer.
Those components are consistent with another example recently for sale on my local CL. I suspect they're original.
