Description:
A lucky find. A piece of rusty junk I've never seen before. It was a big surprise to find out it was a Demountable Model 1. After hours of cleaning and oiling it's starting to look like a working typewriter. But it's going to need a lot of care. I feel like an F1 mechanic working with it. It only takes a few seconds and the typewriter is taken apart and put back together. Czech keyboard.

Historical typewriters, cameras, sewing machines, ... - all beautiful things, that work only on the basis of human skill and ability. Therefore, they deserve our attention and respect. I do not want to let those inventions that pushed us forward much faster than we were prepared, them disappear in this way.
Lives in Michalovce, Slovakia. Proud father of two children. Started collecting in March 2020. More a hunter than a collector or restorer. But determined to change it and bring the machines to a new life. Thank you in advance for any of your advice and help. (English is not my strong side, so I use Uncle Google's help. Correct me anytime).
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Demountable 1 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Demountable Serial Number page and the Demountable 1 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
