I think it was Microgramma or Eurostyle all caps RON COOPER, very simple with the headbadge decal being a cap C inside a diamond. Pretty much 60s "London art school" stuff. Even more London art school was Dave moulton's decals with all lower case Helvetica dave moulton and the monogram made out of four lower case m's aranged in a square shape for the headbadge.

Like I mentioned before, bikes that are "of their time" as far as the graphics (like a Limited) are easy to appreciated years later. Way stronger shot of nostalgia in my opinion.
