Description:
It was difficult to identity this 1957 machine at first since there are no markings indications model name. After comparison with other machines here it appears to be the Tippa B1 . A fantastic little ultra-portable. Built to travel, and built to take a few knocks. Was never a fan of the gull-wing ribbon covers on Hermes, but these are great, and do not interfere in any way. If you are looking for a throw-in-the-bag laptapper that is not fragile or too expensive but still a damn good and reliable typewriter - this is it.

I salvage, repair, restore, and (occasionally) sell typewriters. Not for profit. Not even for pleasure. Typewriters are a lifelong passion. An obsession.
