Greg S. linked us below, to two of his beautiful early Colnagos. Awesome sights ... thanks Greg!
Looking at the 1969 Super, brings a question to mind that I keep meaning to ask the list. This '69 top tier Italian road bike still uses a clipped-on set of "b.b." cable guides. Was there a year that most of these big guys went to brazed-on top of b.b. guides, or did the change trickle in? Thanks...

Hi Crew,
Two special Colnagos that will be of interest to anyone who has even a
minute curiosity about this marque. There has been debate as to what a
pre 1970 Colnago should look like and the 'playing card' style is what
has been accepted as the earliest one most are familiar with.
Determination to find the truth together with hard work and assistance
from friends, has created a correct and gorgeous 1969 Colnago Super in
original color with correct varnish fix decals. I am sure no other
example this complete and accurate exists.
