I have many from 1975 on and some from the late 1960s but none from those specific years. Sorry; let me know if I can still help.
Here are some of the early ones. Unfortunately I don't have date or location info for these. The 1970s ones are in color and I do have the info for them.

Interesting variety of schemes there. Maybe we should start a Pitts registry.

I have a closeup of the "tail art" on N321RG and I'm pretty sure Charles Schultz would not have authorized it!
It was fun going through these pics and recalling what a cute little sportplane the Pitts was before the unlimited guys got to work on it with all their mods.
Anyone else who wants to see pics of any homebuilt, antique, or classic type, just ask. Unfortunately no one has done anything to compare with Scott's yeoman work with the Registry or this forum for either the antique/classic or older homebuilt sectors, but I have a huge pile of pics from Mr. Kamm and am happy to share with anyone here who's interested.
