I ran across an odd old bike at the flea market today, it was a Rivel Cinderella, sort of a moped-style frame similar to a Honda Express, bright orange. Only thing I could find out was it's a Dutch maker. Anyone ever see one of these things?
 
Rivel is a dutch company founded in the 30's. Started out with tricycles en strollers, in 1948 they founded Rivel bicycles.

Couldn't find the "Cinderella", is it something like this:

Not quite, closer to this but more angular, less swoopy:

Single straight downtube, very odd-looking cast aluminum caliper brakes, just an oddling in every way. I am looking everywhere for info on this company, coming up with not much so far.
