........ Additional notes from Stephane Pennequin about a few items in the Mixed Nuts Display.
Picture
Exact replica of the original John Brailsford’s Acorn (1961) made by Bas Ingle’s son, Mat Ingle, in 2001, and assembled by John Brailsford. From Stéphane Pennequin.

Replica of the original “Coins Réglables” (adjustable chock) made and given by Stéphane Pennequin. The French rope party, composed of “Southerners” Franck Ruggeri and Didier Ughetto, perfected a set of these devices in 1962 for the north face of Corno Stella (Argentera).

A few months ago, I acquired two mysterious anodized nuts on wire that are stamped “ELITE”, and that I could not identify. Recently, after many years of research, I finally found a nice copy of the book, Sicherheitskreis im DAV, Ausschuß für Sicherheit am Berg. Tätigkeitsbericht 1974-1979, which I immediately ordered for a very reasonable price. I quite believe that I discovered the solution to the enigma in this Pit Schubert’s interesting book. I don't speak German at all but with the help of Google translator I learned that ELITE was Clog's importer in Germany. As Clog has never marketed anodized jammers, nothing allowed me to come to this conclusion. So these nuts were made by Clogwyn Climbing Equipment in North Wales.
