Description:
This is a Urania 7, a German typewriter, from 1931.
When the Model 7 was brought on the market, it turned out to be expensive, so that the previous model, the Model 6, continued to be built in parallel as a cheaper alternative.
Model 7 was also heavier than Model 6.
The openings on both sides of the frame are closed with cover plates.
It was manufactured by Clemens Muller GmbH, Dresden, established in 1885 as sewing machine producers.
In 1909 they started the production of the Urania series of typewriters.

I inherited a collection of around 400 old typewriters and calculators from my father, who collected them for 50 years.
I also have a YouTube channel featuring these typewriters.
The pictures are made by my wife who is a photographer. Her name is Milena.
This gallery is managed by her,
So if you like the pictures don't thank me but her.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Urania 7 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Urania Serial Number page and the Urania 7 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
