If you remind me to check, I can likely come up with a 50th anniversary brake center bolt dome cap and I know I have at least one singleton 50th anniversary hub, I just can't remember whether front or rear.
PM me if you have either of those bits; I am sure we can do a deal

One personal nitpick is the routing of the brake cables. It always looks unbalanced in my eyes to see the right brake lever going to Campagnolo brakes because of the offset. Just like it looks unbalanced having he left lever going to the oppositely laid out side pull calipers of other brands. I know many people are convinced that they cannot get accustomed to riding with a set-up that is contrary to what they have grown accustomed to, but it has never been a problem for me. I have bikes that feature right/rear and left/rear and apart from at slow speed have never been able to notice any difference.
I am not sure I understand your point; are you suggesting I run the front brake from the left lever?
If so I can't get me head around it with other bikes being routed the standard UK way (right = front). I am afraid after many years of riding my brain is programmed and I fear in an emergency I could grab too much of the wrong brake. I have used hire bikes on holiday and I don't adjust to the change.
