Etablissement CL. Pelissier & FILS was established in 1909 in St. Entienne - Loire. They made Hubs, Chains, Pedals, Toe clips and thorn catchers under the Pelissier brand. The earliest hubs are branded only with "C P" on them. In the 1970s another company from Boen, Ets. Perrin & Courson also produced Pelissier branded hubs as well as producing hubs under the "Perrin Maillard" label.
Christoph Ulbrich: the Pélissier brand used for French hubs relates to the Etablissements Cl. Pélissier, later Ets. Pélissier Père et Fils, which has been founded in 1909 by Claude Pélissier in Saint-Etienne, 10 rue Chomier. I am quite sure that there is no relation to the three racing brothers by the same name. Besides Pélissier other brands used by this company for their hubs were Primm-Hub, C.P. and Plume. I think it was in the early 1970 years when Perrin et Courson bought the Pélissier brand. As they operated together with Maillard a combined office of development the well-known Pélissier high flange hubs were also marketed under Perrin-Maillard. ...
