We were wondering just how rare these are. Well, not that rare I guess. I got one a couple of months ago from eBay and here is another one. Mine is a 1989 and this one currently on eBay is a 1984.

The seller is calling it an "Elektra Treviso" - maybe just got that from the plate on the face of the machine.

I have to say that mine is in better shape, except for the drip tray grate.

My local Elektra dealer has one of these sitting on a shelf (not for sale).
At first I thought they had an Enrico of Italy thing sitting up there until I looked a bit closer.

Now that's an odd spot to make espresso! But that is a classy machine at first glance!
Tried to find that on the bay and it doesn't show up! That's strange!

Looks like you and I had shared some of the same espresso journey. My first quality machine was a Wega Mininova. It's the pourover type. I have it on sale at the local repair place now since I've moved on to lever land.

Mine Wega machine has been down for a couple of years, but is about to go back into service when company comes over.
That supercal looks in pretty rough shape. Usually photos hide most of the surface issues. I'm sure it will look better with a lot of elbow grease!
