Description:
I found this beautiful typewriter at a flea market. It has an Italian keyboard and is in perfect working order, including the tabulation mechanism. I obviously changed the ribbon and I overhauled and cleaned it thoroughly. It has a beautiful writing feel.

I am a typewriter hunter and collector. I love going to second-hand markets to find typewriters to valorize. I want each of my typewriters to be functional, as I use them all to actually write on. I collect Olivetti and other Italian brands, but in rality i like all kinds of typewriter. I'm (slowly) adding my collection to the database.
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.
