Has anyone any ideas about what the sponsor logo shown next to the nose roundel might be ?

I've looked everywhere, but although photos of the famous slipstreamer race at Monza 1969 features
in many of the old books, there's nothing clear enough to show.

I wondered if it might be Hart Ski or the Heuer Chronograph one placed elsewhere earlier in the year ?

I can read "Vibro-meter ".

From Vibro-meter:

"Vibro-Meter SA (Fribourg, Switzerland)
A world leader in the design and manufacture of vibration monitoring systems for propulsion units and machinery used in commercial aircraft, helicopters, military aerospace, and industrial and marine installations. Vibro-Meter SA also provides instrumentation for rocket engines and nuclear applications."

From SwissInfo:

"Contacts the company had with Formula 1 motor racer Jo Siffert, a Swiss who was born in Fribourg, led the company into testing of engines.

"You can even see on some of the old pictures of Jo Siffert that the name "vibro-meter" is featured on his car."[/I]

I can read "Vibro-meter

That would make some sense & seems highly possible. Any particular other Seppi cars you saw it ?

This is amazing I asked the question less than four hours ago !

Thank you both, I really appreciate the efforts. I spent that long going through my own collection of magazines & books, a fruitless journey
