Description:
I found this one online. It came to me with a broken mainspring and several other issues. It's mostly working now, though I still need to tweak a few things and put a new ribbon in. (I wouldn't suggest trying to replace the mainspring on one of these. It's not for the faint of heart.) Cosmetically it's in fair condition, though it has certainly seen it's share of use. Interestingly, it has an entirely US keyboard.

I'm a newbie and amateur typewriter "collector" in Memphis, TN. I have a small collection I hope to expand in time.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Groma Kolibri on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Groma Serial Number page and the Groma Kolibri By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
