1938 Hermes Media Serial # 41535 M 1938 Hermes Media typewriter, Serial # 41535 M Stefan Arlt's 1938 Hermes Media typewriter. 2025-01-19 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Stefan Arlt: 1938 Hermes Media Serial # 41535 M This is quite an unusual typewriter from the classic Media series ; the M (= Military) letter in the serial code shows this is a typing machine made for the Swiss army, with its steel sheet case which may sometimes have unit markings stamped inside. It also has a Swiss-French keyboard, less common than Swiss-German ones. I really like this typewriter, as this is a simple, robust, rustic yet elegant and reliable typing machine.
