I have been blown away by the generosity of some  of our members in the past.  This is another one  of those times.

Christian Godart sent me a query about something  to do with Lejeunes and I responded.  We exchanged  emails and some photos.  Then he asked for my  address.  Saturday I received from Christian a  Lejeune catalog ca 1981, a black and white photo  of Emile Bodart riding for Pelforth Lejeune in the  Bordeaux-Paris in the late 60s, and a poster of  the 1977 BP-Lejeune team.

What has me most excited is the first photo I have  seen of a 753 Lejeune Champ du Monde.  I knew they  existed, but have never seen a photo prior to  this.  Does anyone have a photo in their archives  they are willing to share?  I will scan the  catalog in the next few days, but the 753 bike is  already posted at link below

To Christian, thank you so very much.  You made my  day.
