In conjunction with the SCAA conference , Hines Public Market in Seattle is showing off some vintage espresso machines. I hope to get over there on Sunday and see them for myself, but in the meantime here are some pics that someone snapped: espresso museum.

Hi Love the site, I am in New Zealand and looking to buy a vintage espresso machinr to set up a cafe, can you please advise me if my search would be in vain and if not what sort of cost would I be looking at?
Thank you
