Description:
This typewriter is not about features, it is about performance. The Matura types extremely well and very fast; after a while you forget you are operating a typewriter.
Remarkable: the carriage can be removed in two seconds and when you hear the bell, there are only five characters left.
P.S. During cleaning a well preserved stamp from the Dutch East Indies fell out of the machine.

I live in The Netherlands.
Most common typewriter brands over here are Triumph/Adler, Olympia, Erika, Olivetti, Remington and Brother.
I collect and restore typewriters to learn about their design and to write with them.
