Steve,
Yes, it is. I brought two Eisentrauts -- the multicolor fillet brazed 1977 custom (repainted in 1990s acc. to original owner) and a 1975 Limited (the dark tall bike next in line). Both have Bikeforums connections. I will make a post of the two of them at some point -- as you know we've had a warm winter in central IL, but not much sun -- and what little we have had has inspired some riding, not outside bike fiddling, so... the photos and post will wait.

The weather has been distinctly weird and warm (and windy), which has permitted me to rack up my highest January miles ever! I've also been able to pedal down to Trefzger's bakery and grab a donut mid-ride, which is even more important!! Sure beats the donuts at Casey's, and they have some bike books to browse while ingesting delicious calories!
As a believer in karma, I just assume we'll be paying the price for a pleasant February eventually. (or is that Calvinist philosophy? I can't recall)
