Wayne,I'd guess the bike to be a 76-77, if the brazeons are original. If they have been added, then the bike would be no older than 73, because Brian's 72 Colnago Super has the additional club cutout in the top head lug.

Wayne,
I have an original (paint and decals) Colnago from that exact period in my shop right now. There are no braze-ons for TT guides, shiftlevers, or W.B. mounts. Of course, those are not the correct graphics for that Colnago either, in case you're interested to know that.
