May 22, 2014. While on a tour bus, I passed this location (not a scheduled stop: don't ask the driver to stop!) and saw the Eurocent machine outside in the parking lot. Cannot verify that the machine works, only that it is still there. MWHTH.
April 26, 2019 Update. After a 5 year wait, I returned and was able to obtain the Eurocent designs! Both designs have excellent well centered images. MWHTH. |
