What a great find. Perhaps it's a "Tipo Roma" model? Should clean-up very nicely. I have always admired the Legnano paint scheme as it simply reeks of 50's style with a proud racing history. I can only imagine the bike when it was new and how the original owner would have been so proud of his new bike. He would feel like Gino Bartali on his new bike.
I bet you have many years of proud ownership.
Thanks for the photos,
