Hi Mark, I've certainly seen yellow decals used often with black Supers of that era. I don't think I've seen many other variations! In fact I believe it is an iconic Colnago colorway. Colnago has recently retro'd some pista frames in this colorway which leads me to believe it was a staple. Best of luck and post some pics of the job when done!

A friend is painting a circa 1985 Colnago Super for another friend of ours. It has COLNAGO pressed into the chain stays, and in the seat stay caps, but there are bosses for only one water bottle cage, on the down tube. The color is to be gloss black, with the already fully chromed fork.
Can some of you please point me in the direction to view all of the appropriate decals used on black, or at least very dark colored Supers, from this time period? Send pics, as large as you got 'em, or send links to photos online ... any and all images will be useful, and appreciated. Thanks in advance for the help...
Ciao,
