Description:
The fact that this is basically the same machine as my 1975 Adler Tippa S was a pleasant surprise. It's just slightly different in shape and a lot more shiny and orange.
Has the old standard Finnish keyboard layout. Standard Pica typeface.

I have been looking for ways to spend less time on electronic devices, and because of this I started doing my writing and translation work with pens and pencils, and now on typewriters as well.
I will probably start selling and giving away some of my machines after I figure out which ones are most useful to me. Some people have asked me for a working typewriter, so I have been on the lookout for machines purely for that purpose as well.

Triumph Gabriele 20
Hermes 3000 (3rd gen., French)
