Eisentraut was well known to mix tubes in his frames; he didn't care for using complete tube sets just to be able to put a sticker on the frame stating such, instead he picked specific tubes from different sets and manufacturers to match what he felt the buyer's needs required.

I was thinking of that too. I was expecting a fully sloping crown with the controlled shapes that flowed right into the reinforcements, an Eisentraut "signature" for so long.

In 1972 I ordered a racing frame from Lee Katz at Turin Chicago. Four months later it showed up white black graphics and rear eyelets. Whats with the eyelets? I was told take it or leave it. ED
