Subject: [CR]Campagnolo BB cup "T" mark question.

As I was working on the Medici (with Rick Cool) this morning, I again noticed that one pair of cups has a mark I haven't seen before:

Thin-wall cups (NOT spiral groove), sort of a "soft" lustre chrome finish, clean, fine print stamping. Print says:

36 x 24F T Made in Italy. Campagnolo.

The T is enclosed in a triangle, which I'll try to duplicate:

__ \T/ V

Oh, well, you get the picture. I thought this might ID "special" cups for the triple, Rick wondered if it might have been made by a subcontractor, but these are just gueses. Any authoritative answer or better guesses out there?

thanks
