Description:
I bought this typewriter as a non-functional decoration, mainly because of its case. I thought it had been repainted in the past. But after cleaning, I think that the non-standard decal is original, or it was restored by a really good expert. I added a few screws and the carriage guide string and the machine is working great again. The ribbon movement mechanism works continuously on both sides and appears to wind the ribbon opposite each other. For it to work correctly, I always have to loosen one nut on the ribbon spool. The ribbon is then unrolled from it.

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