Rooting around in my basement over the weekend, I came across a 1974 (or slightly later) catalog from Big Wheel in Denver. I would suppose that there are other list readers who recall poring over the information in this, and similar catalogs.
[ this includes items such as the Campagnolo #3320 Gran Turismo 3-arm steel cotterless crank set and the Cinelli M-71 patented combination of leather shoes with plates for a no-toeclip, no-toestrap, early concept of "clipless pedal", as well as Masis, Colnagos and Cinellis for $750 each, fully Campy of course ]
I can scan it -- about 80 8.5 x 11 pages or so -- into a pdf document, to post in a suitable place in the archives -- or I can scan it 11x17, half the total number of pages, and much less likely that I might get some of the pages upside down.
I'm figuring on doing the scanning in the next few days; and am leaning toward the 11x17 size.
Consider this a straw poll to see if there are major objections to the 11x17 format, if not, that's how I'll post it . . . it will make reading the facing pages easier.
