Description:
Based on the Adler Gabriele 25, Adler apparently made these semi-portable machines specifically for Scheidegger Institute, which sold typewriting courses along with the machine in the 1960's and 70's.
Standard DIN spools. Typeface probably Elite. Swedish-Finnish keyboard, with an uncommon feature of including both pound and dollar signs. No exclamation mark, as in Finland it was (and in some degree still is) considered unnecessary in any quality text.
Features include:
Folding paper rest
Margin stops
Variable line spacing
Full tabulator function
Black/red/stencil ribbon selector
