Description:
This Kwik-Riter makes me think of coffee or espresso given its color scheme. Like all of the German-made machines that I own, it is incredibly well built and a great typer. I plan to update this gallery later on with additional photos.

I'm likely more of a casual typewriteaphile than a typewriter humter/collector. That said, what started with a single Olympia SM9 quickly expanded to include two more Olympia typewriters: a 2nd SM9 and a mighty SG3. I've now gone on to add other brands, but thus far I remain most interested in the machines from the 1950's - 1970's. I use all of the typewriters that I own. Typing out a letter, or typing almost anything for that matter, brings me a great deal of satisfaction. The typewriters themselves appeal to my appreciation for well designed mechanical devices.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Triumph Kwik-Riter on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Triumph Serial Number page and the Triumph Kwik-Riter By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
