"I've never seen a blue PX-10, and I never hope to see one ..."

I have seen exactly one blue PX-10, owned by a fellow passenger on our bicycle-friendly commuter rail line (https://gonctd.com/services/coaster-commuter-rail/), and lots of white ones. When I worked at a Peugeot/Nishiki dealership in the early 1970s, all of our P*-10 bikes were white. My boss had to have a PX-10 as his personal bike, but he gave up trying to break in the Brooks Pro saddle after about a week -- best $5 I ever spent on a bicycle component.
