That particular Altenburger-equipped Cinelli you refer to is now watched over by Ken Wallace, proprietor and keeper of the women at the Bisbee Bicycle Brothel. The serial number will tell us more...
This just sold Cinelli is older than I( thought, subsequent details lead many astute observers to place it at least solidly in the 1950s, even early that decade...

Dale Brown asked, provocatively,
"57 CM, serial #273! Early 1960s? Maybe even late 1950s?
