Description:
An unassuming ShopGoodwill purchase that actually turns out to be a really good-feeling typewriter I can type fast on. Holland made. Pica typeface. It shares keys 9or at least their shapes) with the much larger SE-1xxx series machines, easy to keep my fingers centered. While certainly a heavy to carry machine compared to a manual ultraportable, it's bearable for an electric. Because the bottom is closed and its not too heavy I've been known to type with it on my lap. The name badge is taped safely to the back of the lid until I can decide whether I'm going to paint it to a more interesting color or not.

New collector with a penchant for offbeat models/brands and, conversely, the mundane models many overlook, if I have a personal connection or just find them interesting. Finding that collecting typewriters is like eating potato chips, you can't have just one! Also restorer of mechanical calcs, Vintage audio, and vintage computers.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Adler Meteor 12 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Adler Serial Number page and the Adler Meteor 12 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
