Well, the seals were gone, it was a few years ago so they were just useless old tat rather than retro chic. The fork legs were a rather funky aubergine colour though, and I'm a sucker for dual-crown forks.
I have got a Raleigh Dynatech Torus XT titanium frame tucked away in the garage loft, with a bent derailleur hanger, but also with the rather funky Direct Control dual-crown rigid forks. And a full XT groupset to go with it, albeit not quite period correct as I replaced the cantis with XT V-brakes. I really should get round to rebuilding it some time. That's definitely not going in the tip.
