Looking past the amazing pantographing on the crank of his Paginini (which I admit is far more interesting than what I'm about to point out), I noticed the shield logo on his Super Record front derailleur.

Or is this more common than I think? It's a small difference, since that winged wheel is on there one way or another, but I don't recall ever seeing it surrouned by a shield. My suspicion is that this is VERY late production, like 1987... My other theory is more of a reach...

Good eye. I've never noticed seeing a Nuovo or Super Record FD with a shield logo either. That's either a rarity or I haven't been paying good attention, though the latter is perhaps the more likely.
