Delivery promised six weeks “OR EARLIER”, underlined; the deposit line reads “see 9695”. The chainstay entry “Sanyo” pairs with OTHER DETAILS, “Sanyo dynapower clearance to be allowed” — a dynamo mounted on the stay. The attachment page is a ballpoint sketch of the frame, drawn over the show-through of another spec sheet: arrows mark “Deep Blue Metallic” at the head and seat cluster and “P.O. Red” across a hatched bottom bracket area, the fade scheme the main sheet's “as over” points to, and beneath it is written “Ultra 6 Block 13 14 15 17 19 22.” Transfers are noted as new style, black.
