Oh ok, I got you. Yeah, I've never seen that sticker on known pre-1969 frames (although admittedly I don't have any pictures of a 1968). That's one (not the only one by a long stretch) question I still have - when did Bottecchia change from the mid-60's to late-60's/boom period style? Since I have examples of a '67 (old style) and a '69 (new style) that narrows it down to '67 or '68.
