Regarding John Hudson's query ".... approximately when the anodised versions were introduced?..."

Holdsworth's Aids to Happy Cycling catalogue lists coloured flanges for British Hub Airlite Continentals as extra in 1957, and doesn't list this hub option in 1955 and 1952. Appearance in a catalogue isn't the same as an introduction date, of course.
