Description:
Pica type
German keyboard
This came to me with the expectation it might be a project typewriter in less than perfect optical condition, but all I had to do was replace the drawstring and wipe it down and now I have a nearly perfect little Urania.

I started collecting typewriters in 2006, but what started it all was using my mother's Brother Student-Riter XL1 in 2004. The next year I received my grandma's Smith-Corona Silent, which was enough to hold me over for a little while but eventually led to an obsession with manual portable typewriters.
