Cider faucets should be all plastic or Stainless. Brass and chrome plated faucets can corrode because of the PH of ciders and wines.

If you can bring the zoomed picture in it's own window, like when you click on it, you can view the source and search for jpg or gif etc to find the specific address to post in this thread.

You can message me the auction and I can do this if you want.

Oh man! The faucet arrived today and it is a beauty (I'll get some pictures up ASAP) It is Stainless Steel and manufactured by Universal Dispense Systems of Great Britain. It operates like a stout faucet, with a forward tilting lever and a flow valve. It is in perfect condition and even came with a Magners Cider badge and bracket. It is going to make my vintage Guinness faucet look shabby!
