Subject: [CR]Old Specialissimas ever Celeste?

Has anyone ever seen an old (50s 60s) Bianchi Specialissima that had original Celeste paint. I've seen a picture of one that had the chrome fork ends typical of all the Specialissimas I've ever seen, but it didn't have any chrome bands on the seat tube. I certainly haven't seen everything but I've never seen a Specialissima without either 2 or 5 chrome bands on the seat tube, nor have I ever seen Celeste (that I knew was original) on anything but
a Team Issue.
Anyone?
