A few years ago I came upon some "globe" brake hoods in blue. They looked completely genuine. Has anyone else found hoods in colors?

\r?\n> http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Campy/RubberShifterCovers.jpg shows the

\r?\n> different styles I found in my junk pile just now. Note some have

\r?\n> "cuffs" and some don't; also note the different sizes.

\r?\n>

\r?\n> Assuming the oldest ones had an open-C typeface, these must all be

\r?\n> newer, so there are probably still more styles out there (one more at

\r?\n> least).

\r?\n>

\r?\n> Anyone have anything like a timeline for these?
