They come in black or white, are marked Campagnolo at the nose on each side, and have gold trim at the nose and the sides of the saddle's rear. There is a Presta valve built into the plastic pan that allows you to fill it with air.
One of the LBS has a few pairs NOS, and one pair NOS with various stains - looks as if someone spilled coffee over it. Of course, this has to be from the one shop in town who's vintage Campagnolo selection is somewhat comprehensive mainly as they overprice anything they have.
Haven't been back to the shop in months, but I do not have an offical boycott of them - yet.
Take care,
