Description:
Scripta 5 typewriter found for sale locally on Facebook Marketplace - not mine, unfortunately. Looks identical to a Frolio 5 that I also found on sale some time ago, so again I thought it is a good idea to add this too on the TWDB for reference, as it is not common to find such machines with Greek typeface. It has a nice wooden case and also a replacement writing ball and letter plate for using Latin typeface.

Writer and blogger from Athens, Greece. I own a small collection of typewriters, most of my machines are functional and I try to repair any with problems that keeps it from typing. For me, it is important for a typewriter not just to sit on a shelve for display, but to be able to type when I want to. On the links below you will find my blogs and social media profiles. Feel free to follow me and get in touch if you want. I am always happy to communicate :)
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Scripta 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Scripta Serial Number page and the Scripta 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
