I guess the frame & fork never found each other again

This picture may look different than what you saw because the 3 color fade is front/middle/back.
Yellow from the front of the bike, green from the side and blue from behind.
The colors are candy* colors over a pearl marbelizer over black base.
The cut-outs were done in gold leaf. Aaaalmost visible on the fork crown.
No decals as I originally did the paintjob for myself, but Dan saw it and talked me into selling it to him.
(he still wears the leather belt I made him in 8th grade.)

I was going to letter Pinarello in gold leaf on the down/seat tubes, but in those days I didn't know much about cut vinyl masking.
So it never happened.

I've been trying to pinpoint it's paint vintage, but I can only say somewhere from '89-'92ish.
