Watch E-Bay and see. Like anything for a Paramount to much money. I have seen a pair of Weimanns sell for more than I paid for my 1974 P10-9. Unless you are really into getting everything correct I would just use a modern 27 inch aluminum rim with hook beads that looks right. Sun makes some rims that are nearly identical and are reasonably priced. Roger
I left 27" on my Raleigh last year when a good 700c wheelset came up on Rivendell board. I cold set my rear triangles from 120 to 126, so there's no going back.
I have a great 27" wheelset that may interest you. NOS Rigida 1320 rims, Campy Grand Sport hubs - I probably have $325 in it, including wheelbuilding cost. While the hubs were purchased used (and reported to come from a Paramount), the wheelset has 20 miles on it. (Had them built as duplicate spares 5 years ago, loaded up cross knobbies, and only used them a few times on gravel roads)
The hubs have oil ports for oiling the bearings with Phil Tenacious Oil. I have a very high-mileage set just like it with Zeus Grand Sport hubs that was built in 1978, but I'm talking about the new Very Low Mileage set - contact me if you want to discuss. To brag about the quality and durability of Rigida 1320 rims, my old Zeus/Rigida wheelset has well over 20,000 miles on it.
I have a good shipping box. Could remove or throw in the freewheel.
