I like Weinmann brakes. So when a seller was offering mostly NOS pads for them at a car boot sale today, I didn't hesitate and bought the whole lot.
The lightly used set on the left are probably Koolstop imitations, but the rest say "WEINMANN BREV", like they should:

In my experience, Kool Stop normally puts their name on the back side where it will be hidden when installed in the holder. (I think their original reproduction pads for Campy Record brakes might have placed them on the sides of the pads themselves.)

A Brooks B17S Imperial, for mrs non-fixie's new ride. After years of trial and error this has become her favorite saddle. Given the influence of the saddle on the overall riding experience, as well as the fact that these are not too expensive (by Brooks' standards, that is) I was happy to oblige.

Not enough posts yet but picture should be in album under my profile - received two NOS Regina Titanio chains today, as part of a bunch of vintage parts I bought from a private seller.
Having checked prices in forums now afterwards it feels like I got away with a very good price.

Cork bar wrap and new 27 x 1-1/4 Road Rib tyre to match the rear on the Robin Hood Lenton Sports. Now have to file the front dropout to fit a quick release alloy wheel, and figure out how best to mount the fender stays which were slipped over the axle.

Some goodies from Retrogression for my fixed-gear Diamondback. An 1/8" 16T cog (MUSA!) and an Izumi ECO chain, on the advice of @79pmooney.
