Description:
This was the first typewriter I owned.
I found it in a recycling station, and later I found out why it had been thrown away. It's completely useless and the typeface sample took me about 15 minutes to type. It was however the spark that started my typewriter mania, so I will most likely keep it around somewhere.
I couldn't seem to find its serial number before, I have found the 2 numbers but the number of digits didn't match the database directory.
One of the numbers is on the frame and the other number is under the space key (unlikely the serial number should be placed there)
After a helpful link and guidance I finally found the number and now it's updated.
I looked for so long when I first got it, but couldn't find the serial number, yesterday I looked for even longer and even my girlfriend gave the machine a few turns, she was the one that found the number under the space bar.

I just started collecting typewriters a little less than a year ago.
I own 10 of them, but only 8 1/2 of them are in working condition at the moment.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Triumph Gabriele 20 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Triumph Serial Number page and the Triumph Gabriele 20 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
