Description:
This is my favorite typewriter (so far). The keyboard has all sorts of nifty characters, like the upside down exclamation mark and question mark, but also "dead" keys for umlaut, and the accents aigu, grave and circonflexe. There's also a tilde key, but that one isn't dead. There is no 0 either.
