Thanks for this. I love De Rosas. I currently have an original Primato, but always have my eye out for another.

I would like if the guide contained information about frames produced later than the time period covered. Especially in the US, the likelihood of seeing any DeRosa produced before 1980 is VERY small.

This guide is great!

I agree -- all the pre-SR/pre-investment cast lug/pre-CPSC Cinelli, Masi, Colnago.. even Pogliaghi examples are way more common than De Rosas. The holy grail seem to be finding one with pressed lugs with cutouts, especially with original paint.

Here's my cherished '73. I have it for 15 yrs and want to be buried with it.
