Yes it is. Safety levers! Actually it could be a Schwinn or something from that era as well. Kind of hilarious. The illustration was probably done by a young person with talent and skills but little experience. Looks to me like an Illustrator graphic traced from a photo. That may have been the oldest bike they could find to 'model'. 1975? Close enough! That is ancient...
