So is the "JPR" who manufactured this eBay headset (item # 140111336812) the very same "JPR" who manufactured those somewhat unusual seat posts in the 1970s and early '80s?
What other parts did they manufacture? Also, how big a firm was Jan Routens and was it related to Jo Routens? Fred "elucidation requested" Rednor - Arlington, Virginia (USA)
