Hi Tony

My own Perkins is still an integral part of life for me.  I've had it
for 41 years.  I also have one at the office, but my own machine is the
best! (smile).

Hi Again,

I am probably in the happy position of having two perkins'!

Didn't always have two I hasten to assure you!

As a user piece of equipment
the Perkins surely is & will stand the test of time.

For how long?

Well who knows!
