Subject: [CR] Help needed dating a Campy Record QR skewer


I have a Campy QR skewer that has the same "Vincenza Campagnolo Italy" cast ing as the common 1970s flat handled QR Skewers, however this handle is c urved. The screw on end of the skewer is identical to the 1970s skewers--c onical with the "D" ring--it does not have the bulbous end of the later ske wers. Is this the 1978 CPSC compliant model? When did the later curved ha ndle skewers with "Campagnolo" in script and the bulbous screw end appear?
