I do remember seeing some high-end Peugeots with gold-in-appearance MAFAC brakes bolted to frame-mounted pivots. I'm surprised I lost the link, because I love stuff like that.
You are correct Sir! On page 113 of "The Custom Bicycle" there is a picture of a frameset from Peueots' custom shop. So I suppose it wasn't a mass produced fame?

Cheers,
Chris
