Other Notes: In 1960 Daniele Perazzi went into business with a Fiat-trained automotive engineer, Ivo Fabbri. Inspired by the great English over and under guns of Boss and Woodward, their vision was to apply modern production techniques to these timeless classics. The partnership ran until 1965 when they parted ways.
Due to this short-lived partnership examples of their collaborative work are quite rare, and good examples are sought after.
