Must be nice rims, but I did not like the way Mavic started putting so much more decals on them. Campy was doing the same with even bigger company and rim model logos on their new rims at that time. It was a tend that led to what we see now on modern rims, where they became even bigger advertising billboards then most bike frames for the rim companies.
My favorite classic rims from Mavic would be the 330GL. A sew up rim that might have been considered a Mavic benchmark for reliable and light sewup rims of the mid 80's and later.
