olmo logo
Hi y'all,
Does anybody know where I can find images of Olmo logos on-line? Specifically, the 1980's-style logos of yellow block letters with black outlines, and gold stars with Olympic circles. I know I can buy decals, but first I'd like to see if I can save the fifty bucks by printing my own. Only problem is I haven't been able to find the logos on the web. Thanks very much. |

I have some images nabbed from ebay: earlier though...

I've also seen the middle set of logos on Ebay. It would be nice for a white frame but I've already painted mine a bright metallic blue. The first set also looks really cool, but I don't see it matching up with the color either. Thanks for the leads tough.

Man, if I knew 80's bikes would be so popular when I was riding a HELLOVA lot more then, I would have saved everything I had. Including empty boxes.
I know exactly what your thinking cause my friend had one. Nice light blue Olmo with the gold lettering style. |
Im not sure these are what your after, but if one of them is then I could take some photos tommorow

Hi Shady,
The top photo is exactly the kind I'm looking for. If you could send a couple photos that would be great. I've been trying to see if I can reproduce the lettering on the computer. The Bookman Old Style font is almost an exact match, but I would need to stretch it out horizontally a bit, and add the black outline. Also, I carefully measured the letters and stars before removing them, but now I can't find the measurements. Could you tell me approximately how big (or small) they are? Thanks a lot, I'd really appreciate it. George |
Very nice bike, Chuck. Mine is also a mid-80's vintage, upon which I've hung Nuovo Record components. Nice upper-mid level Matrix (Cromor) frame. The color really sucked, though, just a cruddy gray with no shine. I used to have a 1983 Trek 700 frame that was also gray, but it really sparkled. Anyway, I've put three coats of metallic blue on the Olmo now and it's looking great. Sort of a Gios blue but a bit lighter. I'm doing half-chromed forks and stays (I love chrome), and I'm going to do yellow pinstriping around the lugs. It may have no resale value now, but I don't care, as long as I'm riding it I want it to look good. I'll try to post some photos when it's done.
