Description:
I am proud to present this gorgeous typewriter on the database. It is the earliest Erika Tab 5 you can find here and it has "Frakturschrift" aka "Deutsche Schrift". The typewriter has a nice patina and it seems to have golden particles in the black coating.

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 Erika 5 Tab on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Erika Serial Number page and the Erika 5 Tab By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
