Description:
This typewriter was built in 1962 and is one of the last of this series. The Erika 20 is a well-equipped typewriter, a modern interpretation of the Erika M from the 1930s.
This example has a wide carriage that is very easy to remove. All functions are flawless. Only a few plastic covers on metal levers have been lost over time. This doesn't affect the function, just a small cosmetic flaw.

I have been collecting typewriters since 2022. I now own around 50 of them.
I use typewriters every day, either for letters or my diary.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Erika 20 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Erika Serial Number page and the Erika 20 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
