I have a Bottecchia Frame (bare no head set, BB) for sale. The model Campione D'Italia/Campione Del Mondo. It says both. I am fairly sure it dates from the late 60's. The last date on the decal states "Campione Italiano 1967." the frame measures 53 c to c and 54 c to t.
   It has an old style head badge that says Bottecchia Teodoro Carnielli.
   Color is bright yellow with white seat tube and donwtube decals sporting worlds bands. Other decals on the seat tube are in bad shape.
   There is an old style foil Columbus decal in fair condition. Chrome head tube lugs, fork crown, fork ends, and seat and chain stay ends in quite nice condition (a little discoloration and a few minor rust pits).
   Dropouts are Campagnolo. I'm asking $140 including shipping. If you would want the Gian Robert Grouppo (derailleur and downtube shifters) that came on the frame $150. I can send pics to anyone interested.
