Just posted photos of a recently purchased De Rosa to Wool Jersey.  Estimate age as 1976-1977.  Note the uncommon fluted HEART seatstay caps versus the more commonly found flat DE ROSA caps.  Also note the nicely reshaped Brooks Pro saddle, thought to be the work of Bettini.  Factory pantographed De Rosa Cinelli Milano 1R stem and Campagnolo brake levers.

Photos may be viewed at the following Wool Jersey address:

Have not ridden it yet, but can't wait!
