Old bike books are way cool! I was very recently digging through some boxes and found my copy of Rand-McNally's "All About Bicycling" and "Bicycling" by J. Durry and J.B. Wadley from 1976. "Bicycling" has a color pic of a super sweet Mercier (pink!) fitted with a Super Record gruppo. Definitely some high drool factor photos in that book. ;-)
Gotta dig through my boxes more often,
