Yeah, that is really one cool item, but I've got my sights set on a

Misspelled items can really cut down the bidding competition. My
personal favorite ebay search is "cyclecross" instead of "cyclocross".

Might be a real number, but it ain't Gino Bartali's number ... Bartali
didn't ride in the 1954 Tour.

On the other hand, Bartali had number 13 in 1951

So, who had 13 in 1954?

I was wondering how these numbers were fastened to a rider's jersey. --

world's greatest descender ever - , answering a journalist who asked him

Ah, Progress: Something is gained, but something is lost...

Didn't see much raggedy pin damage as might be expected from a used
Tour number.

Wonder if the seller knows we're over here whispering about his
auction item? --D-y
