Euro Lucres by Francesco

The Euro Lucres S.A. (Aguilas - Spagna)  marketed in the 70s some machines model Europiccola of La Pavoni, thanks to a simple and naive camouflage of the boiler and a logo affixed to replace the original.

Very rare to find, you can only make assumptions about their limited availability. From a commercial standpoint, buying a Europiccola original machine, add the costs of processing and resell at a higher price does not seem to provide sufficient profit margins, given the already considerable cost of these machines. No less important is the consideration that La Pavoni would not allowed a transaction of this type.

However, even if this machine is an obvious "fake" is still a witness of the period and of  the art of getting by.

One described, purchased in Sicily, is the second exemplar that I've seen.
