1986 Magnum Opus Special |
Magnum Opus Special
This 22 ½" vibrant Magnum Opus features special lugs and detailing. This is one of the last frames made during the Southend period and represents a transitional model from the MO Phase II (cast lugs) to Phase III (pressed lugs). The lugs on this frame are pressed 3-window long point lugs with heart-shaped cut-outs; short fleur-de-lys tangs have been added. This system, with variations of detail (slashes, longer tangs, etc.), formed the basis of the MO Phase III to come.
