Unusual Front Derailleur Mount
Has anyone ever seen or know anything about this type of front derailleur mount? It is on a Battaglin but the seller indicates it is a French style derailleur mount.

It looks like it is for a Simplex derailleur. Like this one on Velobase:

As paulkal correctly noted, this is a Simplex FD braze-on mount. I have a NOS Simplex braze-on FD for this mount if you need one.
