Kevin is probably correcta-mundo. I was deceived by the fastback stays and the graphics. If this is a Basso frame, it's one of those made after Basso brought the marque back, and used the older graphics design, if those are the original graphics.

A brochure sent to me by another list-member suggests that Sante was still alive at that time, and was brought out of retirement by Basso to help sell the marque in the early 90s...does anyone here have a firm date for Sante's passing? Steve Maasland, could you find out from the De Rosas maybe?

Looks like that eBay Pog was made by Basso in 1992,,,,,fastback stays, braze-on TT brake cable stops, flat fork crown, etc... look identical to the one from the Basso 1992 catalog:
