Sunday's Big Pic 23 January, 2005 Grand Prix la Route, 1935

One of the Fontenay brothers (probably Jean, but could also be Joseph, or Léon), winner of the 1935 G.P. de la Route. Bike is probably a Helyett "Special". Note tape on first few inches of brake cable housings, chain oiler, bb grease port. Is that a chain hanger on the right seat stay? Can anyone i.d. the rear derailleur?
