I was incredibly surprised to find this tag on the underside of the body. It appears to be made out of metal and depicts a cross of some sorts, as well as "I" and "21". Most likely, the "I" stands for italic, as is the typeface, but right now I am clueless about the "21". Please comment down below, if you have any idea!

Hey there, fellow typist!
I'm Lewis and my goal is to aquire every single typewriter there is. No, not only every model and make, but every single one produced!
It'll be a long and tedious battle, but I'm committed. So guard yours well... ;)
Just kidding, one should be plenty enough, right? ...


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