Description:
Got this one from the first owners. The couple had taken good care of the machine, as proven by the good condition, a platen that looks like a new one and the partially paint touch up on the side of the ribbon cover.
This Adler branded Triumph Gabriele-E has keys with a textured top and relative sharp edges. This key design was changed around 1960 with smooth and more rounded keys. This resulted in a somewhat softer touch.
The ad at the bottom was published in the Dutch newspapers “Trouw†of December 12, 1961.

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.
