Michael, The funny thing is that's the color I associate with LeJeune bicycles - and both of mine are painted that way. Of course, I realize they all couldn't have been that color because I have photos taken at the factory with a blue tandem in the background. But the really funny thing is that I have 3 different sets of LeJeune decals, each using a different font but all are sans-serif fonts. Two of those sets are on bicycles and the 3rd is a set given to me by Monsieur LeJeune when we visited. As they say, c'est la vie... By the way, I'm amazed you saw a LeJeune on the Lower East Side of NYC. When that was "my neighborhood" all you saw were Atalas, Peugeots and those tank like delivery bicycles.
