Ahoy !

I recently was given a 1974 "Raleigh lightweight bicycles" catalogue similar to the bulgier.net http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Catalogs/Raleigh74/00cover.jpg

Catalouge I have: Monona Bicycle Shoppe 5728 Monona Drive Madison, Wisconsin 53716

Handwritten prices in USD as follows Raleigh Team Professional DL 185: 900.00 Raleigh Professional Mk. IV DL 180: 649.00 Raleigh International DL 170: 519.00 Raleigh Competition Mk.II DL 165: 329.00 Raleigh Gran Sport DL 160: 299.00 Raleigh Super Course Mk. II DL 100 / DL 110L (Lady's): 219.00 (no indication if the price applies to both Gen'ts and Lady's) Raleigh Grand Prix DL 115 / DL 115 L (Lady's): 150.00 and 159.00 (no indication of which prices to which model). Raleigh Record DL 130 / DL 130L (Lady's): 139.00 (no indication if the price applies to both Gen'ts and Lady's)

Regretably, neither the Raleigh Professional Track DL 175 nor the Raleigh Super Tourer DL 135 (5 speed) / DL 140 (10 speed) are annotated with pricing.

I hope this information is useful.

(Incidentally, how the catalogue was gifted to me. I was riding the Super Course Mk. II, emerald green - same as shown in the catalouge - rolled passed a fellow on an Out of Time Line Trek; then, few miles along, stopped for coffee and a very dunk-able anisette biscotti. Trek rider cruises-in, wide smile beaming. He, too, had an emerald green Super Course Mk. II and, still had this sales catalogue. Now, here's a kicker: fellow lives in my town, above my usual coffee shop and, I happened to exchange pleasantries the night before when he was crossing the street with a motorcycle helmet (What kind of bike, etc....). Small World Department.)
