Description:
A fine example of a post-war edition of this model.
Doesn't differ mechanically from the pre-war Model 2 and Kyiv. You can find more extensive description at the pre-war # 1349's page (see links below).
Oddly, it came to me in the case labeled for # 22732. Since I am the second owner of this typewriter and the previous one never had another Moskva, it is likely to be just an assembly inaccuracy.
UPD 12/2/2016: now we know two dated machines from 1947 and 1950, so this one is likely to be 1949.

Slowly tracking back a complicated history of Soviet typewriters.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Moskva 2 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Moskva Serial Number page and the Moskva 2 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
