The color balance is way off for the Tommasini photo. It was Ferrari red.
Both of these are "era appropriate" Ergos. The final pic is my '90s 62cm Zullo with modern Chorus, but the TT was too long (despite the ST being way better for me) and I sold it.
Albeit, a little tall for me...nonetheless, nice rides. All of them... ✨
