Dirk,
Your hub is a Maxi. Pre-dates Maxi-Car - before World War II, these
were the preferred hubs in the French technical trials (Vintage
Bicycle Quarterly issue 3 will cover the trials).
See the flats on the cone? Maxi are standard cup and cone hubs,
albeit very nice ones. Maxi-Car are very different.
