Appear to be Dutch or at least an Italian builder using the Netherlands because of less restrictive coating laws? Get Jos to translate the original properly.
"Cycling in Voorburg Van Herwerden has since 1898 been a supplier of handmade frames match. In the catalog of 1983 I read that for years they have been looking for a location in the Netherlands where they could make 8000 frames a year. That ambition came across off on environmental regulations which apply particularly to metal plating.
When they came out in their own country they go abroad in search and they came in contact with the Italian frame builder Zullo Tiziano. Exclusive to Van Herwerden went to Italy ...
... Zullini frames with the brand, since the private label of Van Herwerden.
Zullo also has its own brand and that is his own name. This is a bike that I Zullo last summer at a local grocery store stuff in the North sea coast and I tapped on the head. It is a real Zullo and two days after the brush was a brighter frame with a blue finished smoked finish. Smoked finish is a special spray process, the main color is permeated with different colors. In this case, black and white.
This was not seen there in Cadzand and I actually bought the bike for the Campagnolo parts. Now he is clean and passable again, I have him with pleasure added to my collection, because a real Zullo which I had not.
Until next week! "
