Description:
Very rare "Diamant" typewriter, made in Frankfurt. This model was built from 1919 to 1926. There are no serial numbers in the database. According to the serial number it is not an early one, so I guess that it was produced in the twenties.

Actually working with computers in my professional life I take the old mechanics as a compensation. I prefer machines manufactured before WWII, but I don't despise beautiful and good working typewriters from the fifties and sixties like e.g. the Olympia Splendid.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Diamant 1 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Diamant Serial Number page and the Diamant 1 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
