Description:
According to the only known to me Kolibri brochure the Kolibri was offered with Pica, Elite or Imperial.
I do not know if this Kolibri was built-to-order or had its typeface replaced later. I do know that the typebars differ from the ones on my other Kolibriās. Apart from the textured surface, they have two mounting holes for the linkages.

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.
