Does anyone have a photo of the Legnano seat binder, separate from the frame? I've been asked to create one.

I've only seen one other Legnano and it was missing the binder. This one was "repaired" by someone who arc welded a steel plate to the side of the lug and used a large bolt as a set screw. Not for the squeamish. http://bikesmithdesign.com/temp/Legnano.jpg I tried to buy it from it's owner, a kid about 16. But he said it had been in his family since new. It appeared to have all of the original equipment, or at least period correct.

Are these available anywhere? If I made more would anyone want them?
