I lucked out and acquired a new, in-the-wrapper 1972 Masi Gran Criterium that was originally bought out of Stuyvesant (sp?) in NY(?). I didn't want to take off the crepe paper, but after a month of looking at the brown wrapper, I figured that it had to be done. So, here's a link to the Web page that documents the unveiling:

I showed a couple of pictures of the fork crown to Richard Sachs and he pointed out that this bike has a rare transitional version made from a Fisher sand cast crown.

Let me know if you have any questions about it.
