The Columbus decal of the "white" frame is visible in the upper left corner "detail" shot. SL for sure.
Does anybody have a "timeline" on the decal changes?
1) When was "Italcorse" dropped? 2) When did the "globes" give way to the "flags"? 3) When did the "SP" thing come about? 4) When did the singular "P" happen? 5) When was upper case lettering adopted? 6) When did the upper case lettering go from a somewhat larger "outline" to the smaller, more solid look as on the "white" frame?
Lots of questions, only because inquiring minds need to know! Anybody have any facts?
