1961 Groma Reporter Serial # 676224 1961 Groma Reporter typewriter, Serial # 676224 Guillermo Fernandez Boan's 1961 Groma Reporter typewriter. 2018-01-20 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Guillermo Fernandez Boan: 1961 Groma Reporter Serial # 676224 There are not references in the web about this "Reporter" variant of the well known Groma Kolibri (hummingbird). I've found just one mention.
As long as I've seen, the difference is just in the badge. No other changes noticed.
It writes fine, with crisp touch (as Kolibris are, this one is nice with the fingers). Just needs a little of TLC with the "L" slug. (one for the working bench with the repairman pliers et al).
