Thanks for clarifying on the production date Dominick. I love vintage things and the history behind it so it's cool to know roughly when it was built.
I've read through most of the Peppina's post Chris. I've never taken an espresso machine apart so all those posts are extremely helpful especially for a newbie.
I didn't know anything about espresso but it was the cool looks of these lever machines that got me hooked David. Can't wait to pull that first shot

David

Yeah...pretty sure I want one of those too! Would love one in red!

Nice find!

Long live La Peppina! Inspired I decided to use mine today and am always amazed at how easy it is to pull an amazing shot (Especially if you value clarity like I do)

Just wanted to share a couple pictures of the first two shots from LP.
