Can anyone identify this late 70's "gold" Simplex front derailleur? Did it have a special name? Where did it rank in the Simplex product line? Thanks.

Looks like a Super LJ, which was top of their line. I think there's another one that looks a lot like the SLJ, though.

I've seen one on ebay that was all gold anodized except for the cage..... a Super LJ
