80's Pogliaghi?
What I know:
Rear dropout spacing: ~126mm
Front derailleur braze-on
Columbus SL sticker
“P” headbadge decal
Serial #9142 stamped on BB shell, not seat tube lug like the few other Pogs I’ve seen.
56 CF stamped on the other side of the BB shell, the significance of CF is something I’d like to find out.
If this were one of the original, sequentially numbered Pogliaghis (and I’m pretty sure that it’s not), it would have to have been produced in the late sixties or early seventies. This bike looks nothing like the other Pogs from that era, the decals alone say 80s. The stamps on the seatstays at the seatlug are different from all the other Pogs I’ve seen as well.
Anyhoo, a quick internet search tells me that the brand was sold to Rossin, and later to Basso. My guess is that this frame is one of these, but unfortunately I can’t find anything about frames of this vintage on the web.
If anybody has any info on the post-Pog Pogs, it’d be much appreciated!

This looks like the graphics I saw on later Pogs sold as framesets by (among others) Performance Bike shops. The clerk in my local Performance told me that they were made by Rossin (this was around 1986-ish) so I think you are correct about that, if he was. Not a "real" Pogliaghi, maybe, but a Rossin or Basso built one is not bad, IMHO.

Don't call it a 'Pog'. That's what we call really ugly women in Australia. Cross between a pig and a dog. Come to think of it, don't call pogs 'pog'. It's not very nice.

Haha, thanks guys. And far be it from me to degrade homely Australian women or my frame by comparing them to each other. Pogliaghi it is!

One of the oldest zombie threads I've ever seen. 10+ years old. And how cool is it that the frame is now owned by another Forum member?

They must be pretty uncommon find for it to come up here again. Don't know much about them but it looks great. If it's complete let's see it!
