Hi Lintees,
i asked about the Jaques Anquetil bike a few days ago. Thanks to all who answered!
I asked the owner about pictures, here they are:

not exactly high end, but nice color and original condition.
But here's something to drool on:
The same guy said he got an ancient bike labeled "Merckx" that had a strange thing to it: it beared a writing "„J. Kessels, Constructeur“... :-)
It seems at some time in the 70ies a belgian club called "RSV St. Vith" from Belgium held a criterium, to which several pros attended; Merckx, Thurau, Maertens.... That bike is said to have been given to that club by Eddy as a present. The current owner got it from a member of that club.
Naturally, i asked for pics, well here they are:
(you must be very brave now)
