198X UNIS TBM Traveller De Luxe Serial # 15-495934 198X UNIS TBM Traveller De Luxe typewriter, Serial # 15-495934 Vlastimil Novak's 198X UNIS TBM Traveller De Luxe typewriter. 2023-06-08 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Vlastimil Novak: 198X UNIS TBM Traveller De Luxe Serial # 15-495934 I bought it ridiculously cheap and it was full of live moths :D So, after disinfestation and cleaning, here it is. UNIS. For me, it is some interestingly nice and quite playful thing coated in happy orange and also a typewriter, and, eh, in my humble opinion, really not the best one. Maybe I am used to the neatness of old black and chrome machines and I love confidence of every small part of them. Don't get me wrong. I like the design, it is really clever but I have a cheap feeling when I am typing on it. I know, it is not the original Olympia, which is maybe better... I don't know. UNIS typewriter, it is fine, not the best, not the worse.

I am a passionate amateur mechanic from the Czech Republic, and I have always mesmerized by the complexity of typewriters since my childhood. The first one (Zeta 1501) was just a toy to me in the beginning, but by every year I got older I got also better at understanding how it is working and how to disassemble it and assemble it again. The second one was Ideal DZ33 which started my love for antique machines with all the chrome and glass keys.
My machines range from mint ones through a majority of well-used machines to piles of rust that I have repaired to be typewriters again which is a lot of fun for me.
I am quite obsessed with the beauty and technical genius of standard Continentals. I love how they were producing one model of a typewriter from 1904 to the '50s with constant changes in design and my goal is to collect every decal and every major variation of them.
