If you look at photos of the Giro and perhaps other grand tours in the mid 1970s, you can see a lot of teams riding ALAN frames branded by their sponsor, perhaps more so for mountain stages. Torpado Magniflex had them as well as Guerciotti road and cyclocross bikes, of course. I had one come through here labeled Ciscato, which I had never heard of, nor seen since. There surely are others, but I don't know them off-hand.

Hi, I have seen Alans with GITANE decals, and I saw the PAGANI Alan in the last mail. It makes me wonder what other constructors put their names on Alan frames in the 1970s.
