HISTORY
Original black-painted aluminum nameplate from the company G. Ancillotti (where "G" stands for Gualtiero Ancillotti, son of Ernesto), which later became "Società G. Ancillotti e F." (Figli) in 1967. G. Ancillotti was a workshop based in Florence, established in the post-war period in the San Frediano district, at 8 Rosso, Via Santa Monaca. The company was specialized in tuning motorcycles and Lambretta scooters.
The 10.1 cm diameter sticker was printed by the G. Ancillotti company after the speed record achieved at the Monza Circuit on December 2, 1965, with a 200 c.c. Ancillotti-tuned Lambretta. The standing kilometer speed record of 172.200 km/h was set by one of Gualtiero Ancillotti's two sons, Alberto.
