Having seen this herald on any number of Italian bikes way back I guessed it was an Italian bike industry federation deal, a country of origin label was required and it was the path of least resistance to use this one.

I always liked the small label Cinelli used often affixed to the head tube. Similar to Version F above, but a dark dark blue background.

I first noticed the Herald on Legnanos and Bianchis. But this was 1970, who knows when it began.
