I am the seller of the Colnago Super that Beau is buying. Judging by its details using Chuck Schmidt's October 2007 dating list, it is a 1973-74 frame. It is 62.5 cm center to center. I just tested a 27.2 seatpost and it fit perfectly. Perhaps large frames in other years used other sizes. But this one is 27.2.
Best,
