Campy Melbourne 56 rims...need info

Anyone have info on Campagnolo's Melbourne '56 rim? In the late 90's Campy introduced a rim line commemorating the host city where each of the summer Olympics were held. I found a link to info on campyoldy that discusses their '96 rims but it looks like the Melbourne was a '97 rim.

I also found that the '97 Bianchi sprint came with them laced to Miche hubs which happens to be what mine are laced to.

anyone?

Just bumping this...

I have a Melborune '56 as my back rim which I'm wanting to sell. (it's seen some use, but no actual wear on the rims themselves)

Can anyone put a value on this? I've found people selling a pair for £90, and another selling for near to £300. Does anyone know how much they cost when they came out?

EDIT: For those who don't know, here are the specs:

Use: Road
Type: Clincher
ETRTO: 622
Spokes: 32-36
Eyelets: Stainless Steel
Alloy: 6000- T6
Valve: 6.5mm
Weight: 535 grams
