Hi All and the Happiest of Holiday Wishes to you all!

I'm pushing past procrastination and doing a project on Campagnolo long after it was asked for, but a question popped in my head that I cannot believe hasn't come up before, at least not when I've been present.

Knowing that Tullio dreamed up the QR skewer, does this mean that he also was the first to use hollow axles in hubs?

Wise sages, educate me, please. Grazie!
