Hi Fred-
That sounds like a plausible answer- Maybe they are signal flags for "V" &
"S"- that might mean something like "Vignale Spezialone" or some such...
Michelotti was the stylist, so perhaps that is the connection. I think that
sounds like a good enough answer till a better one walks in...
Thanks
