Found inside the parts manual. A Raleigh dealer price list from 1972.

There was a dealer sales manual with more detailed info and brochures on individual Raleigh models that went with this book that I may still have? Thanks!!!

I sold one just like that for $100 last year. It had the front fender, but not the pump.
