That means it was built at 220 Felch Street in Ann Arbor where I used to work (11 years ago, sadly
the store is out of business now, although Mark had moved away by then). That bike might have been
painted by Mark or maybe by Rob Fairman. Does your bike have the old rounded decals
(nobilettecycles.comframe.JPGOpen ↗) or the newer ones
(nobilettecycles.comcurr3.JPG)Open ↗ I think he changed them around that time, I heard
due to request of Colorado Cyclist who handled his frames for a while.

You might try calling a Nobilette dealer. Such as vecchios.comvecchios.comOpen ↗

Not to say anything bad about his paint work but I would probably call Mark for a decal set and send
the bike to a specialist painter such as JB if you want the rust handled meticulously.

I was at the VeloExpo last weekend and Nobilette had a small both. He had a couple of frames there,
one with stunning lug and detail work. The paint was also outstanding.. should have guessed it was
Rainbow doing the work! They are expensive but worth every penny IMO.
