I noticed two problems with the '88 De Rosa catalog my web site:

First, one of the Anniversario scans (left or right I forget now) had the filename mis-spelled as "anniverario" so if you followed the link provided by Ray D, you got a "404 file not found" error. So sorry! That is rectified now, and Ray's links (below) should work, unless they wrap in your mail reader -- in which case use http://tinyurl.com/hw7ek (left) and http://tinyurl.com/famqh (right)

Secondly, I noticed that the two scans left out a little stripe of data down the middle - when I tried to put them together to make one photo, the halves wouldn't line up unless I left a gap between them. So I sort-of crudely photoshopped 'em together, faking the missing picture data in the stripe up the middle. The result, which looks OK as long as you don't look too close, is here: http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Catalogs/de_rosa-88/anniversario-all.jpg Or http://tinyurl.com/fsuju
