Our DCI Moss knocks yet another one clean out the ball park for a grand slam!

the rest of us are just fumbling about in the dark without him

with the Hobby model posted by Maurice you have the locations of the transfers

should you wish you could have a go at removing the paint in the spots where it looks like transfers may abide

suggest beginning with non-acetone nail varnish remover available at any drug store as it is the gentleist

much like [MENTION=17926]unworthy1[/MENTION] did not recall ever seeing a Mondia example with its serial in this position...

after reading Maurice's post recalled a thread we had here at the forum a few year back where the fame did not have its serial on the seat stay cap

went back there just now and found that frame did not have a serial in either spot

unfortunately, the subject of a serial was never discussed with owner/poster of the bike

it is transferred as a "Special" (only) but is similar to the "Hobby" in that it appears lower on the totem pole than the Special models we received here in the U.S. during the boom

readers may care to have a look for comparison purposes..

gave it an estimated date as being betwixt seventy-four and seventy-seven
