Description
Description
The playing card suits of hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs are ubiquitous on vintage bicycles. The origins are a cauldron of folk lore, many of the stories from French or Italian framebuilders all the way back to the pre-war era. De Rosa, Colnago, and Masi are the first names people think of when they see these symbols, but they are far from the only ones.
Richard Sachs bought up a huge supply of original 1970's full suit fork tangs to go with his lug kit in the early 2000's. Its possible these are from Richard, equally possible they're old Italian goodies...Possibly either case could have the same original maker.
