They really are Campy vertical drops. H#### serial number is okay, even for a 73 which would normally be a G####. I've seen G, H, and A#### on these. I don't know why. And a Brooks Pro rather than the B-17. Standard cheapy english headset, not a Stronglight. And a couple other little flukes right from the RRA info on Retro Raleighs that look an awful lot like my handwriting and memory lapses. Maybe I'll get a discount for copyright violation? Bhwaaaaa haaaa haa ha.
