Subject: [CR]Sturmey-Archer freewheel hubs?

I have a set of Sturmey-Archer high flange three piece hubs. Anyone familiar with these?

They vaguely resemble Tipo hubs in that they have nine drilled holes in flanges as opposed to slots. The flanges are aluminum (aluminium), the barrels are chromed steel. Rear is larger diameter flange than front. It is a freewheel hub and looks like it could have been made as a double sided hub if they had wanted to. Both are 36 hole. Nutted axles, with acorn nuts. Dustcaps part of cones. Narrow spaced front hub, 90mm? - has had spacers changed. Rear was spaced for 120mm I believe, spacers having been altered also.

Sorry no pictures. If anyone can give me a clue if they're: old, cheap, or cheap old hubs, let me know, on or off list. Thanks.
