Obtuse as THAT subject line's connection is, I've a tiny Atala with a 1971-series serial number with "that" little mavic label on the tubular rims. I know that clichers in that size weren't common pre-nixon-era, but I do NOT know that they are limited as "50's" vintage either....even if thats a LOONG time for a label to be the only characteristic mark on rims. Whatever, just wish I were the one selling 'em!

"I'm a little verklempt, I'll give you a topic: will those rims be mounted on a bike hanging casually from the rear boot of that gullwing cruising tokyo on Friday nights? Talk amongst yourselves"
