Hi,

Giro for Ghisallo is a project, in collaboration with RCS Sport ( the company organizer of the Giro d’Italia, the second world famous cycling race after the Tour de France), concerning the research of all Pink Jersey (is the award to the leader of the General Classification) from 1931 to now.
All jerseys will be collected in the Ghisallo’s Museum, the most important cycling Museum in Italy that is placed on the top of the Ghisallo Hill near Como Lake.
In the last months we have recovered 28 Pink Jerseys and now we are already kept in contact for another 7 Jerseys (the period is 30’, 50’, 60’ years), the next donations should be made in the comings weeks.
 
Interesting project, hope you succeed. Thanks for the link to the Giro website - useful!
 
Thanks old Ned

Looking at the design of the jersey, someone from the 40's or 50's. Nencini, Balmanion, Pambianco?? Or even earlier?

I'll have another think!

Is the Pink Jersey of 1954! is a very important jersey because is the last with button. In the 1955 the jerseys will have zip!
 
Today we have receive a great news!!
An other blood relative of great Champion has decided to donate the Pink Jersey.
This Is an incredible thing because this will be the oldest Pink Jersey of the collection!!! :-)
