Description:
I got this Orga Privat 3 as a gift from my great aunt. It is functional, but the line switch does not work properly. A small metal rod that holds the line switch in the Lower position is broken. And if you turn the roller knob towards you (i.e. want to turn the paper backwards out of the machine) the line switch gets stuck in the roller gear and Is pressed down. That's why you can only turn the paper forwards out of the machine.

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