Dear Dutch Cheese aka Gazelle God of the Forum.
Do you know anything about this shop/brand?
Not God, maybe his son ;-)
Brands was (is) a Gazelle dealer from Amsterdam.
I know that Gazelle produced some frames for Brands with Brands decals.
If I remember well, that were not top of the bill Champion Mondial frames, but Trophy series from 531 pg tubing.
I cannot exclude that Gazelle ever built Reynolds 531c frames from Brands with Brands decals. It's posible.
However, Brands could have had frames built omewhere else, too.
It's very difficult to believe that he got frames from Gazelle only.
Maybe you've got to look for stamp marks in BB shell, frame numbers, etc.
