Ha Ha! Me too. That is not a "real" Bianchi but he doesn't want to hear that. It is a shop branded bike from Giuseppe Bianchi in Florence. I have talked to a number of people on the CR list about it. No relation to Edoardo Bianchi. Yes Edoardo had a son named Giuseppe who took over when Ed died in 46. But he wasn't making bikes under his own name in Florence while he was running F.I.V. Edoardo Bianchi S.p.A. into the ground after WWII.
