Description:
Bought for 600 SEK, previous owner said it probably belonged to their grandparent. Ribbon feed is a bit stiff and doesn't like to reverse, paint is significantly damaged on the front. Came with the case though. Definitely belonged to a heavy smoker and still have not managed to get all the gunk out. Am wary of disassembling it too much. It types however. I named her Francis.

Swedish woman who bought a typewriter two years ago, and after that all hope was lost. Have specific interest in mechanical models pre-1960, but I have a couple outside that range and love them all the same. I like to tinker with them, both to repair and understand them, and I type every day.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Hermes Media 2000 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Hermes Serial Number page and the Hermes Media 2000 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
