Italian Head Badge thread

[Jesper]

@juvela Definitely a "Marcon" badge with the "halbard" of Trieste on it (also used by Wilier-Triestina as a company logo). I would like to see the bike since I have only seen lower end models of the 70s. I am not sure if they actually did run a "fabbrica ciclo" or not even though their badge claims it to be a manufacturer. My notes only have it as being a shop and not a framebuilder, but notes are meant to be updated if someone knows otherwise.

Cicli Eterna; Milano (no info)

 

[Jesper]

Cicli Alpa (no info. More than likely an acronym based on a person's name; not to be confused with Cicli Alpi which at one point had Oriello Tardozzi [produced "Oriello" brand from Forli area] building some of their frames.)

Stem badge

Cicli Prezan; Cannobio (bike shop that built-up and badged ALAN frames; and probably other frames. Has been in business since at least 1985. Unknown what "Z" designates; assuming initial of first name; Z. Prezan.)
