As I attempt to research the decals for my frame I am confused by what is available.
One set with the Moser 'head' headbadge has 2 decals showing World Championship victories: "CAMPIONE del MONDO SU STRADA 1977" (Champion of World on Road); and "CAMPIONE del MONDO 1976" (Champion of World).
Another set is identical except it also has 2 World Championship victories: "CAMPIONE del MONDO SU STRADA 1978"; and "CAMPIONE del MONDO 1978". Are these correct; did Moser bikes actually have World Champion decals on them even though he did not win in the indicated year? I did not think he had won that many and checked that 1977 was his only victory for the road race championship, track pursuit victory in 1976. Both sets have the 1978 Pernod trophy win decal for season points so at least that is accurate (I had seen many sellers dating their bikes as from 1978 based on that decal alone). I am now unsure as to where I should order my decals from if I cannot get accurate versions.
