MASI Italy  Bicycle Registry

Most early bikes do not have serial numbers, only frame size stamps. From 1969 on, you may find a date stamp on the steering tube.  From 1975 on, there may be a three or four digit date code near the frame size stamp (under the bottom bracket).

Some photos of Masi frame details are Here
