Bollettino della proprietà intellettuale
The Bollettino della proprietà intellettuale was published by the Ministero d'Agricoltura, Industria, e Commercio of Italy; it contains records of patents (filed and renewed) grouped by two dozen tech categories, including IT 8, navigation & aeronautics.
Scans from 1902—1917 are on HathiTrust. There is a hole in these records in 1905–1906, and numbers missing from other years, which can be filled in, at least partially, from other sources.
This periodical tells us indirectly in what quarter of what year a certain patent was granted, if not an exact date.
The date of the Bollettino in which a patent is first listed might be considered the "Publication Date" for our purposes. On the other hand it is not a complete publication, merely an index.
One, maybe not the only, predecessor to this publication is the Bollettino Industriale del Regno d'Italia.

Interpreting patent tables
The first page of the section with tables of new patents shows details about the column headings, which we do not fully understand. The example at right is from the November, 1908 issue.
The section is labeled "Attestati di privativa industriale rilasciati nella prima quindicina di novembre 1908" which means (according to DeepL): "Industrial patent certificates issued in the first fortnight of November 1908" (privativa means patent)
The column headins with translations are here:
- Giorno del rilascio -- Day of issue, that is, grant date in our world
- Numero del Registro Attestati -- Certificate Register Number -- possibly an order of transcription in a handwritten book when first filed?
- Numero del Registro Generale -- General Register Number -- Not clear how this is different
- Titolare attuale della privativa -- Current holder of the patent
- Titolo della invenzione o scoperta -- Title of the invention or discovery (of the patent, that is)
- Data del deposito della domanda -- Date of filing the application (Filing date; the idea of demand, domanda, also being in the French equivalent)
- Durata della privativa e prolungamenti -- Duration of the patent right and extensions
