Should be on one of the rear dropouts.Those probably aren't even serial numbers. No one has been able to figure out what they are exactly. OTOH, at some point in the 80's (if memory serves) Colnago did begin using serial numbers, so a late 80's, early 90's frame may have one. I just don't know where there's a data base that would make sense of it. Note that those numbers start appearing on dropouts by the early 70's at least.
At that time, it was common for Italian frames to dispense with SN's - De Rosa and Masi, to name two, didn't use them either. Here's my Colnago Master Piu (acquired recently.likely from a reader of this forum).patiently waiting its turn in line to get built up. The rear deraileur side dropout is stamped 'Colnago' and '1D041'. FWIW, weeks ago, I located a post on the net (not sure if it was this site or not.but I copied it to my computer files as reference material) showing a Colnago rear deraileur side dropout with serial number 8E791. A reader guessed it was a 1988 model, stating 'That serial number format is fairly common in the bicycle industry.
Typically the first number represents the year, the letter represents the month and the remaining numbers are the sequence. So, the 79th frame of May 1988 would be my educated guess.' So, is it possible that the oringinal poster's serial number starts with a zero, not the letter 'Oh'. In that case, it might be dated 1990. Compare the style to mine.could they be one year apart? Though I can provide additional close up photos to help a fellow aficionado of classic era Italian bicycles, I can let you know right now that my bottom bracket cut out is quite different from that on the original post.mine is a cut out shaped like the Colnago logo. Then, to pose a question in exchange for my entertaining photo post, can anyone confirm that Colnago manufactured Master Piu frames in 1991?
Cards against humanity 4th expansion pdf file. I own all the current sets and want to make some nice custom blanks rather then writing on them all but your method posted seems a bit confusing for a novice with no editing experience. Any way to incorperate your full sized cards with the CAH card generator here found here?
Also, I recall reading on the Internet that the Piu frames might have been a European model, not imported to the U.S. Can anyone confirm this point as well? Here's my Colnago Master Piu (acquired recently.likely from a reader of this forum).patiently waiting its turn in line to get built up.

Thanks, I've not received the frame yet but when it comes in I'll be able to tell if it's a zero or an 'o'. Looks like the numbering system that I passed on doesn't hold up according to this e-bay post regarding the pictured Master Piu frame: Q: Please tell me what year Colnago made this? Thank you Dec-15-08 A: Hello, who sold me this frame is sure that it is before first model of Olympic frame ( Olympic was made on 1988 for the firs time ) so this MASTER PIU' is around 1986-1987. This is what he told me, and he is a great expert of Colnago and knows Ernesto personally.
Thanks for asking, Alessandro So, per the quotes shown above from the e-bay listing, a potential buyer 'Q:' asks the year of manufacture and the seller 'A:' says that a great expert of Colnago dates it to 1986-1987. The look of the graphics is the same as my Master Piu, though mine is not the 'Decor' style paint scheme. I'd guess from this evidence, mine would also date to 1986-1987. Frankly, not that it matters to me, I'm surprised mine is so old, I really thought it was a 1991 vintage simply because it looks so new. It's amazing that such beautiful frames could last so long in NOS condition without being built up and ridden.
