Description:
I saw it on a flea market between tons of junk and was very sorry for this poor dirty machine. 10 Euros and it was mine. After a thorough body care it is smiling now. Only the space bar has to be adjusted.
Main differences to the "mother" SF:
- a real "1"
- a jumping up paper support
- 2-colour ribbon + stencil position
- a touch adjuster

Collector with typewriter virus living in Austria. Fourty years ago typewriters were only standard office equipment for me. I was really glad to get my first but simple word processors in the early Eighties with delete, copy/paste and whatever wonderful functions. This fascination is over. Now I have returned to real mechanics.
