Help ID Campy FD?
Guy at the LB gave me this:
Nothing special, seems to share some traits with the Olympus FD, but I can't identify it, and that bugs me.

The very rare--- and thus valuable "Miller HL" FD. 
This Campagnolo groupo only appeared for a few months in 2003 and was only sold in Milwaukee to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Miller High Life. The reason for this partnership revolved around Miller claiming it was the "Champagne" of beers, which the French, and thus Huret and Simplex, never took kindly to. Because of this Tulio spotted an opportunity to capitalize upon bike racers and beer connoisseurs going hand in hand. Why be a bike snob and only drink French wine!?! American beer and Italian bike components were a match made in heaven.
