Michael, I'm not expert either, but for being listed as NOS, it sure has a lot of wrench marks and rust.
I have heard various derogatory remarks about this model of front derailleur, are they well deserved?
I ask because I suspect the 1963 Paramount I'm going to be restoring in the spring would probably have used it. Am I correct about this, or is it too old for a 63?
Many thanks,
Jon M. Crate Marietta, USA

Hi,
I thought this might interest someone here. It looks like an early 5Os Gran Sport derailleur - but I'm not an expert on these things.
