Name that Italian frame
 
Guys-

Need a little help here. The name of this builder is on the tip of my tongue and I can't remember the damn thing. Italian lugged frames, 70's-80's, but the distinguishing thing is that for a long time their down tube logo was in a really funky font that looked like it might have been designed by Keith Haring or something -- thick, almost cartoony letters. It really stuck out next to the staid fonts of the Benottos and whatnot. Someone please help me out here, this is driving me nucking futs. HELP!!!

i guess dude didn't check back on his own thread, but i guarantee the first guess was the best guess- that rossin font blows my mind, every time. i want one of them. i want ten of them.

anyone else think it's weird that the Scapin is in the catalog without the derailleurs, chain, brakes, etc?

God, I love that insane little bastard.

Sorry I didn't get back to this, it was a Guerciotti, though I remember some of the older ones having an even more exaggerated font than that. Thanks everybody, that was cool.
