Hard to believe I could go outside on a December afternoon in New England wearing a T-shirt, but the temperature was 67 degrees. I got a new shirt from Chuck Schmidt with a picture of the Le Chemineau head badge on it, so I had my wife take a picture before I left on a short afternoon ride. See link below.

I had just installed the repaired fenders. They are Le Nervurex high tensile, high carbon, aluminum clad steel, and exactly the same as the original fenders.

It was a nice little ride despite the fact that it was very windy.

Thanks, Chuck, for your patience in helping me to get a good close-up photo of the head badge. I think the shirt came out really great.
