Description:
Another Hermes Baby in my typewriter roster, this one was manufactured in 1965. I got it for its Elite 12cpi Greek typeface that I always prefer over the most common 10 cpi one and also for the very beautiful cover. Unfortunately, as you can easily notice, the thin metal body is severy hit and cannot be placed very well on the bottom, but this is something I can work on in time. The important thing is that the mechanics are ok and the machine works fine.

Writer and blogger from Athens, Greece. I own a small collection of typewriters, most of my machines are functional and I try to repair any with problems that keeps it from typing. For me, it is important for a typewriter not just to sit on a shelve for display, but to be able to type when I want to. On the links below you will find my blogs and social media profiles. Feel free to follow me and get in touch if you want. I am always happy to communicate :)
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.
