>From Campagnolo Timeline (www.velo-retro.com):

1983 - February 3rd. Tullio Campagnolo dies. 50th Anniversary group is released. Gruppo Number 0002 is presented to the Pope, John Paul II in a private audience for a delegation of Italian cycling enthusiasts on June 15. Introduction of Super Record brake calipers with triangular cross section (as per Anniversary caliper), Campagnolo script logo, and conical-shaped nuts for center bolt lock nut and cam lock nut


> 2. I'm also looking at a set of Super Record, ("drilled") style levers but instead of the vertical Campagnolo trademark on face of lever theres a Campag shield? What might those be?

That would be something after the CR list cutoff of 1983 I would imagine...
