Description:
This machine is a Mignon model no.3 without back button, which is what makes it different from the Mignon no.4 with back button. This machine is not in such a good condition, it is rusty and Dirty but everything still moves. This machine works like this. You have to select a letter on the character plate with the pointer. The type cylinder rotates when you move the pointer to the left or Right Move forward or backward when you move the pointer forward or backward. When the correct letter is selected, press a key and the type cylinder will move down Pressed against the paper.

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
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Mignon 3 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Mignon Serial Number page and the Mignon 3 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
