solution is a simple LC delay. It depends what you want to delay. If it's digital then an LC followed by a Schmitt trigger would be what I would do.
Williams Filter Design Handbook to design it with discrete parts. Or, as Andrew suggested, use delay lines. Keep in mind that delay lines need to be carefully matched for their characteristic impedance. Otherwise their frequency response looks like a pretzel. I usually drive them with a current source and terminate the end of the line with whatever the data sheet says it wants.
If you need large bandwidth the coax is the ticket. You could use a small one and curl it up if space is a problem.
Of course, it's only about 20' of coax ;-)
