Description:
This may well be the only Yatran' on this side of the Atlantic. I have a hard time imagining how or why anyone would lug this 52-pound beast from the Soviet Union to the United States. I asked the Armenian-American fellow I purchased it from in Northeast Philadelphia in February 2021 where it came from, and all he knew is that he did house clean-outs for a small, Russian family-owned company, and this came from somewhere in Philadelphia area. That's all I've got to go on.
