Anybody got early Strawberry frame decal pictures?

Friend just got an ancient (circa 1974) Strawberry with a small seat tube decal. Does anyone have pictures of an original condition Strawberry of this early vintage to see what the decals looked like?

Pics man, pics, S/N, description?

Andy has a lot of pics on his site, you have to dig a bit.

https://www.strawberrybicycle.com/

Google will get you some too, mostly the same.

I have 3, an older DiNucci made frame that came with bad paint, no decals and is now stripped, an 80's Innocenti and my 2020 custom.

I have frame #10674. It's in rough shape, but I believe the original decals are mostly there. I would need to take some photos.

Thank you, pics would be very welcome.

Merziac's pics are of much newer bikes, which isn't instructive. Already googled, pursued Strawberry's site and contacted Andy directly, which is why I posted here.

I figured that out, sorry, there used to be some that came up. I'll dig around some more.

I think I know where at least one is.

Here's a couple and like I said, there were other versions too.

And like you said, pics would be most welcome.

I think I saw that bike pop up in Portland, not a bad deal but definitely a project, Share some pics of it, would love to see how it turns out!

IMHO, there is not a single frame built by Merz, Newlands or Dinucci that should not be saved, preserved or restored as necessary.

These three are responsible for PDX being the framebuilding epicenter, mecca that it is for over 50 years.
