John E is this a "laminated" addition to a stamped DO or something else (have a detail pic)?
My Siegers and my first (RIP) Modell Campagnolo have/had the two cable clips under the top tube, as well as downtube-mounted pump pegs. My current, slightly older, Modell Campagnolo lacks both features, which is just as well, because those under-tube clips never worked very well, anyway. .
All of the Siegers I have seen feature U-shaped braze-ons that thicken and enhance the stamped dropouts to approximate the functionality and appearance of higher-priced forged units.
