Description:
I saw this gorgeous Torpedo 14 in this unusual color on a french marketplace and just had to buy it. I never saw these in any other color than black so far. I had to remove a bit of rust from the carriage and knob on the right hand side, but other than that the condition is good. After replacing the broken drawband and adjusting the ribbon vibrator lift height and some alignment this beauty writes very well. :)

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Torpedo 14 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Torpedo Serial Number page and the Torpedo 14 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
