I had a Riggio TT "funny" bike (late 80s) with this same decal. They were brought in by a New York bike store who owned the Riggio name -their house brand. They are supposed to have been made in Italy but a source here in CA told me they were made in Canada. Mine did have an Italian threaded BB though. The relation to Masi I think is just cashing in on the Masi logo recognition for sales. They were well made basic frames for their price point and I would have kept mine but it was too big.
