Yes, I think it was a catalog supplement from around '68; the blades were curved. Of course, at the time, the lever blades were straight on the road hubs. I've found a couple over the years and put them to good use on a couple of my road bikes. I'd love to find more - I like the curved versions of these much better than the script logo against the crosshatch background of the post-'79 levers.
