Cat and pigeons spring to mind ! I've not seen a Roberts number like that - i.e large numerals, and not in the same position as it is on mine. Roberts stamps, early and late, tend to be small numerals: where's my thinking cap ? Re the brake cable brazings, you never know original customer may have specified not to have them. Late frames, like my fillet brazed one tend to have a sleeve type braze on, one under each end of the top tube leaving a bare wire between.
