(snipped).... When MA40's (again, these are black anodized MA2's, available from the early 80's through maybe mid 90's) were originally available, they had red foil stickers. Later they had I do not recall MA2's being available at that time, so I think that the MA2 is a later rim.
Peter can you fill in the rest of the sentence after "Later they had........"?
Thanks, Jay. Later MA40's had the same, or similar, parallelogram labels as later MA2's -- see _http://ebay.com/<blah> (http://ebay.com/<blah> Mavic oval, adjacent to a large green field with "MA2" in large letters. I dislike all but the red foil labels, and I happily pull 'em off, occasionally replacing them with a simple Mavic oval.
