Description:
This typewriter I purchased as a future gift for my best friend who introduced me to typewriters. He really liked my Hermes Baby. When this example showed up on ebay, I placed my bid as I knew it would make for the perfect gift. It has a really nice grey/green colour scheme. It has a couple dents which I pushed out as much as I could. Comes with a case however the case's paintwork is not great. Not sure if it has been repainted but it has horrible orange peel. Missing the original metal spools. Other than aforementioned defects, everything else functions well.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Hermes Baby on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Hermes Serial Number page and the Hermes Baby By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
