I have one of these in my hand at this moment. This is no more a proprietary Cinelli seat stay clamp than is the headbadges sold recently. I used to own a 1940's Cinelli with a seat stay clamp saying G. Cinelli. I have also seen others where it is written Cinelli as Chuck says. Unfortunately, it would appear to me that somebody is taking themselves for a ride.
