Description:
This peculiarly late model Adler is possibly one of the last great standard typewriters. While substantial in size it is as smooth as you might expect it to be, being it follows in the footsteps mechanically of the earliest Adler standards of this type.
This example turned up locally and it seems that these big plastic bodied standards don't have as much of a following as much as their earlier brethren, though they type just as nice.
This example is also cosmetically good, safe for a crack in the plastic housing, and the front feed-rollers are degrading. All-in-all still a nice machine to use.
