For the collector…

The first of the colored Sparklets syphons, this particular “Hostmaster MK1” model had a very limited 2 year run from only 1957-1959, which makes this a rare find.

I must say this syphon is not in wonderful condition, and does show its near 70 years! There are some paint chips to the exterior, and the syphon pipe has some buildup (so I’d recommend not using). It is also missing its drip tray. Please see all pictures!
