Thanks. The only Fuji catalogs I had access to were the ones on the Classic Fuji site. All those appear to be USA versions. Always on the lookout for any Fuji catalogs from the 60-80's period in any language. I'm sure the Classic Fuji site would post them too. I often consult my Japanese Suntour catalog, even though I can't read much of the text, except for the numbers
