1954 Hermes Baby Serial # 5400590 1954 Hermes Baby typewriter, Serial # 5400590 Alexander Pearson's 1954 Hermes Baby typewriter. 2022-02-06 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Alexander Pearson: 1954 Hermes Baby Serial # 5400590 Great little typewriter with a soft touch and light carriage shift. I prefer this dark green finish to the more famous seafoam green one. The absence of a ribbon selector and the puny carriage return lever are the Baby's major drawbacks. This particular machine is unfortunately missing the right platen knob.
