hey Tiswas - can't remember the frame number, I'm at work right now, but it got me to within the range '58-'63 I think... have to say I didn't spend a whole lotta time on it but did find this useful Grubb history page:

The headset is some cheap s*** modern thing, shouldn't be on there IMO! Haven't measured the actual steerer but looks like it should be OK with old Campy or suchlike.
The seat tube decal is the crossed Italian and chequered flags, but couldn't say if it is correct or not because of the respray. The head badge is the man on a bike... there's more pics here if you are interested:
