I'm unclear on which companies are related. Ambrosio stopped making stems under their own brand at some point and started to use the Techno Tubi Torino (TTT) name? Or was that Fiamme? And what about ITM, where did they come from? I don't remember anything ITM before the late 80s. Let's put it this way:

What happened to Ambrosio stems (and bars)? What happened to Fiamme stems (and bars)? Both seemed to just disappear long before the rims did (I think Ambrosio might still make rims) Where did TTT and ITM come from? and when?
