Scubapro junior fin black 68-69. Floating fin 70.
 
Interesting link to the Canadian ad for a waterproof suit zipper.

I have just chanced upon an excellent French gallery of vintage gear items, not just the usual regulators, but a whole range of equipment, including masks and fins. It's at
Dive Collector - PLONGEE COLLECTION

The gallery includes pictures of a couple of Jopen Match masks, the "Ovale" and the "Rectangulaire". The "Ovale" seems to be missing its top screw:

Jopen Match of Marseilles, where Beuchat was also based, made fins too:

Returning for a moment to Scubapro, the Dive Collect site has a picture of a Scubapro Pro fin, which looks very similar to the Scubapro Jet.

I wonder how this model fits into the historical order of things?
 
Added another set of fins to the collection today; Voit Custom Model Duckfeet, Super Ex. Lge. Rubber is in fair shape (divable) except for some cracking on the toe where they were obviously stood on end for an extended period. I will attempt to repair with contact cement.
