A few small things today…
…the original alloy cable clip I noticed, and the frame looks like it’s had rear rack mounts cut off at some point - you can just make out the marks on the seat stays

More amazingly, headclip bolt free, stem nut free (courtesy of a pin spanner) and…
THE STEERER STEM ISN’T STUCK YAY!

And and in other news, the BB is stamped
The exciting news is the mould/forge marks are all visible but also, the thing’s been stamped
03907
and
112
So frame number 112 from July 1939?

And finally today, two of the rear spokes are broken, so will likely need to rebuild the wheels I suspect
