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.

Jack Grieve's (Australian Bellman CX-66 reseller) picture:

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!
