The Rivendell Reader was a great publication, created by Grant Petersen of Rivendell and formerly Bridgestone USA. There are some scans of it out there on the intertubes, but I've been scanning some of my old copies just to have good scans. I was just going through issue #24, October 2001, which has a nice pictorial on seat stay plugs and seat clusters, and it seems like it would be a fine addition to this thread....
Steve in Peoria, where I hoard bike magazine articles instead of bikes (the articles take up less space).

Hmmm, it's a photo version of Daniel Rebour pen drawings, Steve

That would be quite the complement to the creators of these photos!
Just in case anyone isn't familiar with Daniel Rebour, he did ink illustrations of bicycles and associated items back in the... 1930's (or so??) up to the 70's. I always thought the drawings looked better than the actual parts.
There is a fellow, who I think is a BF C&V member, who has scanned a lot of Rebour drawings and posted them to Flickr.
Here's an example that shows a seat cluster...

The album of the Rebour drawings is here:

Amazing stuff!
