The Invitation for Cycling by Mr.Gami

Part 114: Peugeot by Sannow Sports in 1960s




I would like to introduce the catalogue of Peugeot in 1960s. It was issued by Sannow Sports which was the general agent of those days. I’m not sure about the exact year of publication. I guess it was issued around 1963-1965 because of the parts composition of PX10.

The price range on the catalogue is 31,500-85,000 yen. The starting salary for a university graduates was 19,000 yen around 1964. It was one tenth of a present salary. If I calculate the prices based on present salary, those are 310,000-850,000 yen!

I show each page below. However, the letters in the catalog is too small. So I prepared E-book. You can turn each page as real catalog, and zoom it. URL is below. Note: advertisement which doesn't relate to the catalog would appear because I use free service.

This catalogue was scanned the original of those days, was offered by the reader who got it in his youth day. I didn’t dare retouch it. Because I'd like you to feel the atomosphere of those days.
