This doesn't make any sense Stevan. Check out the prices (pointed out by Joe BZ).
Super «Record» strada -- 28,175 lire «Record» strada -- 17,940 lire Speciale «Record» strada -- 48,875 lire (a due corone di sfere = to two crowns of spheres)

Note also that all the headsets are referenced to the Campagnolo catalogs... except that is, the Speciale «Record» strada.
I have heard (rumor mostly) that Campagnolo had a headset for Bianchis that used the integrated headset ("V" races pressed into the headtube lugs). Bianchis had this style headset from the very early 1970s all the way back to the early 1900s.
Anyone have any other ideas???
