Description:
Interesting early Erika 5 with, I presume, braille markings on the paper handle. An e-bay acquisition. Cams from the very heart of Germany, a lovely small town Wernigerode. Handled by G.Hahn. (I love his logo)

TYPEWRITERS...
Doesn't they look sexy to you? Such a number of different shapes, forms and colors.... All those complicated and not so complicated mechanisms, levers and arms, gears and sprockets... how they became alive and start dancing at your fingertip punches...
It started on December 2015 when I bought my second typewriter... Beaten, damaged, dusty... I took it apart, cleaned, repaired. Since then it became as an obsession... Now there are more than dozen.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Erika 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Erika Serial Number page and the Erika 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
