They are THE original thin water transfer? As far as I know (pretty far!) Reynolds only made varnish transfer (earlier) and peel and stick (later) versions.

I could have sworn that the Reynolds decals that came on my '72 Peugeot PX-10 were water slide... anybody know? They sure were fragile, I know that.

When I repainted my frame a few years later (1976) I got a couple of sets of decals from a bike shop in Rochester, NY and those were waterslide for sure, but probably not genuine. One set is still on the inside lid of my toolbox.
