Description:
A lovely Klein-Conti with German typeface a fine smoky gold finish. Unfortunately with some corroded spots on the surface, but still a beauty. I found and bought it via the Internet in Austria and I used it as sample for my new avatar.

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