I assume you mean this picture? http://tinyurl.com/9gmjo

I believe these shields are "531 Special Lightweight" fork blade transfers. Here's a web link for your viewing pleasure: http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Catalogs/Reynolds_Tubing'78/p03_Transfers.h tml Or in case that wraps or is otherwise munged, http://tinyurl.com/anp4s

Later there were 531 ST (Super Tourist?) and 531c (Competition) shield fork blade transfers also, but those aren't the ones in Riccardo's picture.
