Stunning frame,luckily it's not slightly bigger otherwise I'd probably have yet another project.
There are some stunning bargains to be had on rim brake steel frames just now.
The cable guides are probably for bar-end shifters,they have been around a long time, I had a late thirties French touring bike with them.
They have been in and out of fashion ever since, including on "racing" bikes.
Best of Luck with the sale.
May be worth trying on Retrobike if no luck here.
