Campagnolo 1950s First Pattern Gran Sport Hubs NOS Made In the French Cognin plant. Extremely rare, these components were made in a newly built factory in France to get round the heavy taxes France imposed on imports from Italy post war. The Cognin  factory survived only a few brief years before being shut down, hence very small production run of these items. Skewers are stamped 'Btevet France', not 'Italy'. New old stock, in the iconic, original blue and yellow felt lined Campagnolo box.
