I happened upon this empeg for sale on eBay. Ok, so the seller used the well-known photo of the empeg luxuriating on the purple satin sheet. Then at the very bottom of the ad, I see "Photos included in this listing are of the actual item." Maybe that corresponds with the seller's claim that it was one of the first off the assembly line. Any empeg historians want to comment?

Ebay's denial of responsibility for the accuracy of the translation seems a hoot. But I suppose that depends on local.
