Consumer Product Safety Commission, and as usual, I butchered the acronym (once again).
I have a NOS 111 Italian Nuovo spindle (thick cup), and a nice, used Triomphe spindle that is 114 (thin cup). Would either be of interest? I'd offer a pair of cups, but they have such bad races, it isn't funny. I'd trade both for the Nuovo spindle/cups, though I'm not sure if that would really be of benefit to you or not.
EDIT: My mistake - the NOS spindle is thin-cup as well. The used Triomphe is 115mm, not 114. I also dug up a Nuovo Record BB, Italian, thick cup, but the right side raceway is subject to some pitting - and unfortunately, on the bearing contact surface.
I checked my stock of cups - unfortunately, they consist only of the aforementioned poor quality Italian thick-wall cups (fixed cup is intolerable, adjustable is reasonable with some pitting), and a mint, thin-wall English-thread adjustable cup. Nothing else, I'm afraid.
