In the last millenium, I posted (with the permisison of Raleigh Industries)
an HTML version of an old Raleigh wheelbuilding booklet I had won on eBay.
That website is long-gone, but I just scanned the booklet and made a PDF of
it and its accompanying spoke chart, and put it on my current website.  The
booklet and chart are undated, but from the document numbers I surmise that
they might be from 1949 and 1951, respectively.

The file is big, 7.5MB, but I wanted to keep it at 300dpi to preserve the
"look and feel"--and the wonderful cover illustration, with a workshop full
of Sturmey-Archer hubs being built into wheels!

The booklet is on Randy's website at
