Nico now has his own web
site, and there is now an English version of the site available. Nico has a very good
gallery of radios to view and a superb collection of over 30 speaker cloth samples
that are available, some are reproduced specifically for certain sets but all would
complement many 1930's sets. These are the best speaker cloths that I have seen.

The main site is obviously in Italian, but there is an English
version and it is very easy to find one's way around.
You will also find some very nice reproduction Ephemera
that Nico produces when you visit his site.
He has produced a replica copy of the 'Instruction Book'
for the Marconiphone V2, that looks extremely original, printed on antique finish paper
with a thick card cover.It is a very good replica with 16 pages and the circuit diagram
included.
Nico has also produced a Marconi calendar that was produced for the
transoceanic anniversary, this can also be seen on his section of the above site.
Nico's English is very good, considerably better than my
Italian, and I spent ever a year out there!! do not hesitate to e-mail him at nirubini@libero.it if you need
any clarification.
