Bertin, brought in by Patrick Sercu during the Tokyo Olympics of 1964.
Pre 1993ish Basso logo with stripes (headtube). Must be Marino in 1972 — not makers' stripes of course, these are of the "my brother was a world champ" kind.
BTW, previous owner of this frame really liked his Olympic rings as well:

Alan uses the worldchampion-striping correctly, even with the years on it. But not consistent as you see.
And the stickers they used a while are another thing.

And then there's track, with an Italian winner in '68, Giuseppe Beghetto.

Making my way through my bike galleries and grabbing a shot of each I find.
Most "interesting" set are the upside down ones on this Lemond. This bike is one of a handful Greg had custom done himself to give to friends.
Basso Gap
?? The white? Bianchi Campione
Lemond Chambery
Cioocc Designer 84
Colnago Super
De Rosa Nouvo Classico
Fuji S-12s
Lemond Team Z
Lemond Maillot Juane

So... Greg Lemond put the rainbow stripes on his bikes because he won the World Championships. But he was not riding a "Greg Lemond" bike...
Same for Francesco Moser, and others I am sure....
So if you win a WC, and then start a bike brand, you get use of the rainbow stripes.

Painted fade stripes on a Limongi from about 1990. some of his frames have valid stickers with the UCI stripes.

I thought he was on a Bottechia because that is what he rode at the same year's Tour...

Often, riders with eponymous brands also had contract clauses allowing them to ride their own brands at events on their native soil. For instance, I have several photos of Steve Bauer riding his own brand of bicycle at Canadian events, while he was under contract to la Vie Claire.

Late to the party and TLR, but has anyone else noticed/mentioned that all the sequences mentioned here are, by even the most extreme stretch of the imagination, NOT "rainbow" stripes?
