My 8 regular readers may recall my first thread - I bought it for the dropouts

A mid-1930s Pagliati with Campagnolo's first gen dropouts (although I believe there is an earlier version, but those could be prototypes). Nothing nefarious, I'm gonna build that bike someday.

I have no interest in another bike except.... I regret not purchasing a 1952 Maino, then this popped into my feed, a 1951 Maino with first gen Gran Sport dropouts. 4mm screws and the derailleur stop at 4 o'clock instead of normal 7 o'clock. Campagnolo made these for a hot minute in 1951. Now I get to spend 20x on the proper rear derailleur than I did on the frame. Oh joy.
