STARBUCKAROO

While looking at this picture, i realised that:

_ It was not made by the Family Robbiati,
_ The badge says it is a reproduction,
_ I don't know where it was made,
_ The badge shows undeniable good humour,
_ The Italian on the Badge is perfect.

And you?

Synergy

If Lucio wouldn't have sent me this crop of a 1915 Italian Newspaper,

is becoming even more difficult to answer.
(i hear some say - in the back of the room - the pressure valve in the knob...
yep! Well, until proof of the contrary... as usual)

Was the period (full stop) present in the first leaflet or later removed?

Base for Stella Coffee machines Typ 402 S


This is the advantage of being interested in a History

This time, i really appreciate the fact that someone else (the seller)
thought that it would be of interest (for me!).

A piece i only knew from a leaflet i saw the first time Mm. Stern visited me.

Since then, it has always been in the back of my head.




This is it together with the 104 base:





The list of "WANTED" items becomes thinner and thinner.

... and thinner...
