On November 20, 1981, Campagnolo held an event called "Campagnolo Day for Our American Friends."  The lucky attendees were treated to a tour of the newly opened factory in Vicenza and a reception following at Sr. Campagnolo's villa.

Campy Only sponsor Richard Sachs was among those in attendance on that special day. He recalls,

"In 81, i was invited to Signor Campagnolo's villa as part of the opening ceremony surrounding the then-new factory. We were there for a tour of the factory, but had the afternoon at the villa appropriately named, " La Delisciosa". We all got some nice gifts. Included was this limited lithograph, composed and printed just for the day's events."
