VILÁGSZABALDOMI

More than once, i was amused by the claim "World patent" on a Bon Trading leaflet see Here

That's until my Hungarian translator noticed the above mentionned word on this Szigony leaflet Here (around 1948-9)

VILÁGSZABALDOMI

=

WORLD PATENT

If you need more information...

 

Did Bahco-Condrup Ltd. continue selling Robbiati's coffee machines after A. & M.G. stopped the production?

 Here is the Bahco-Condrup Ltd. leaflet i am referring to: Here

You can make a worthy contribution to this Blog and my knowledge by sending me a scan of the following leaflet. Many Thanks in advance!

Find an elderly person who understand old fashionned Magyar

 That is what i did.

The google translation didn't make much sense. So i went to see a elderly former librarian lady, originating from Hungary who translated it for me:

***

She: We don't use those words anymore, how old is the article?

Me: 2012

She: Then the writer has known those times.

***

"Black" means independent. (Red meant Gouvernement-near)

So Imre Simon was a perfectionnist, he was famous for it. He was running the best "Black" business.

He also left some impressions among its customers, admonesting customers for not taking care of their machines, that they bought 30 years ago, when they brought them for repair.

His wife was the lightnig rod. She is also described as "more forgiving, understanding and empathetic".

I posted a picture of her already in 2013:

preposterous

I am glad i am researching the history of Robbiati's coffee makers.

Anything after 1989 is so ludicrous.

Here, the authorised repairers for Bon Trading Pty Ltd is using a picture of Jack Grieve on their website.

It reminds me of a recent post:

Also this: on Bon Trading's website you will read:

"we are very proud of our role in introducing the ATOMIC to Australia and preserving its manufacture for generations to come"

There are good reasons to think that's nowhere near what they think they are:

_ Patent registration in Australia in 1949 here

_ Advert David Jones from 1958 here, another one here

Preserving the manufacture:

_ S.T.E.M.A.C. closed in 1989, 6 years after BREVETTI ROBBIATI (here)

Grotesque!
