The club motif (as well as the heart, spade, and to a lesser extent, diamond) was used by a number of frame builders, Colnago is probably the most well known.
If you were in Australia, I'd be telling you to have a look at Petrus:

reissue59 is that a full club motif (with the stem on the edge of the fork crown) or just three connected circles?

which is to say: a couple in-focus close-up pix would really help!
This one is so blurry nobody can make it out.
Since you have MauriceMoss watching now DO NOT squander his attention! seriously...post some better pix ASAP

Lousy picture but when it's not Colnago Belgian Martinelly is a serious possibility.

"...Belgian Martinelly is a serious possibility" true but this doesn't ring the bell for the typical marques from that builder (for me, anyhow), such as the often-seen Cornelo, etc.
I trust that @MauriceMoss will be the guy to nail this, if anybody can.
Columbus blades (per the decal) but no reinforcing tangs on that fork...
