1959 Underwood Documentor Serial # 13-8392945 1959 Underwood Documentor typewriter, Serial # 13-8392945 Ville Elomaa's 1959 Underwood Documentor typewriter. 2023-08-08 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Ville Elomaa: 1959 Underwood Documentor Serial # 13-8392945 I bought this most likely 1959 Underwood Documentor from a German guy, who had totally refurbished it. The machine works very well and it is in a really good condition too. Only the press button on left of the platen is broken. The keyboard is a German keyboard with QWERTZ setup.

This machine is extremely complicated, i think that there are six belts in the machine. The linked videos show my Documentor when the German guy was refurbishing it.
