Description:
Das ist die Erika 127 meiner Großmutter. Sie befindet sich in einem hervorragenden Zustand, da sie vermutlich auch kaum genutzt wurde.
Diese Maschine schreibt wunderbar, hat aber eine kleinere Schrift als die Typische Pica-Größe. Ebenfalls ist sie im Besitz eines DIN A3 Breitwagens, womit sie sehr gut zum beschreiben eines kleinen A5-Heftes geeignet ist.
Die Maschine schreibt 2-farbig und sie wurde 1984 vom VEB-Robotron in Ostdeutschland, Dresden gefertigt.

Hello, my name is Tim Rippl and I am from Germany. I have been collecting typewriters for about a year and a half and currently have eight machines in my collection. My collection mainly focuses on German manufacturers, but I also have a American typewriter.
What fascinates me most about typewriters is their technology, history, and the many different ways in which they were designed and constructed. In my opinion, old typewriters are a great example of how creative and resourceful people could be when working with relatively simple technical means. Every machine has its own history and character, and that is what makes collecting them so interesting to me.
I look forward to continuing to expand my collection and learning more about the history and technology behind these fascinating machines.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Erika 127 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Erika Serial Number page and the Erika 127 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
