Description:
Bought this nearly-jacktorrance-model Adler (this has decimal tabs) from an older guy in Tampere, Finland, along with a subcompact antares parva. He said he sold one in better condition earlier, got this for cheap as it needs cleaning and lubricating. Typing works, but the machine is extremely sluggish. With Finnish/Swedish keyboard. With the machine game a set of (original?) cleaning tools and an instruction manual in three languages: German, Swedish, and Finnish.
