Description:
This Orga Privat is in good technical and visual condition. It's just a little dirty. The Orga Privat was produced by Big werke in Nuremberg, Germany. This company started producing tin toys from about 1900, due to the experience gained in the production of tin toys, this machine was made with a tin body. The Orga Privat is the first typewriter with a self-supporting sheet metal housing. The machine has only one cast iron part and that is the type lever segment, all other parts are made of sheet metal or steel, so frame breakage is completely excluded

I come from southern Germany and have been collecting historical typewriters for 10 years. I'm interested in the antique machines built before 1945. All machines built after 1945 are not used for collecting but for writing
