Thank you -- Otto Cap used these lugs for more than a decade (1952 model shown here, with Capo brand derailleurs).

1952 Capo Sieger with Capo brand derailleurs and very-rare-for-Capo through-frame cable routing.

Adolf Christian rode a similar Capo Sieger to his 3rd place finish in the 1957 Tour de France.
