These decals with the large "C" do (did?) exist on original Colnagos of the late '70s. I owned one with the decals in question and purchased it from Mel Pinto Imports somewhere around 1978. Colnago has had many variations of their decals over the years; so many that it's hard to keep up.

Grant,
I have never seen an original Colnago decal that had the enlarged "C". There are definitely orig. decals with the club in the "C", just not the enlarged "C". I am not saying definitively that the enlarged "C" doesn't exist, but I haven't seen it. Seems like a Cyclart modification.

Hello list,
This Colnago has the same decals that Cyclart put on my frame that they repainted:

Has anyone seen these decals as originals, with and enlarged "C" and the club symbol (or "flower", lets not go there!) inside the "C" on the downtube and seat tube?
