Does anyone have a link to a picture of the Reagan/Schwinn advertisement?

My "type" like to see those kinds of things. ;)

It’s a minor point but it was actually, thee speeds. Ronald Reagan and his first wife, Jane Wyman were astride a pair of Schwinn Continentals in a “Celebrity” advertising piece that Schwinn produced ar ound 1946. Sturmey Archer quadrant shifters are visible on the toptubes of both bikes.
