I'm probably going to make waves in this thread, in regards to 'Classic' two tone, but it is two tone and it is about 20 years old

Lot of nice bikes and paint schemes in this thread. Particularly like Jan's Gazelle and OFG's Merckx. The silver mink Raleigh Pro's such as mkellers were also one of my all time favorites. Here is my '73 Raleigh RRA, getting dark in pic last fall, haven't taken any more of it since then.

1963 Hetchins Mountain King.
This is a litter mate to Peter B's Hetchins. They were made in the same month, according to the Hetchins records.
Not yet built up, but it is a classic two-tone:
