Tommasini Fork Question
 
Anyone ever seen this kind of flat crown fork on a Tommasini Super Prestige? Wondering about the dating and authenticity of this. Thanks for any info.

How about a full bike picture! That looks very interesting color scheme.
Can't help with the fork question

The fork is likely early 80's. By the mid to late 80's the Air fork was nearly ubiquitous.

I am sure that is authentic as that stylized T is famous and I am sure I have seen it on a Tommasinis but not on a flat topped crown but on an internally lugged sloping crown as shown below. I have seen that T on a flat topped crowns but they had a sort of a crown fashioned around the T and I believe were late '70s. I know in the 80s I have seen other Ts that were more like script Ts, not block letter Ts.
You might try dating the Campagnolo components or hope T-Mar checks in.
