I just can't stop admiring this beautiful piece of antique metal!
This typewriter, which dates back to the 1920s-30s , is simply a masterpiece! Type it, and you will be brought back to the industrial age, the inventive period of civilisation.........and perhaps you may even feel like one of those inspectors in trenchcoats.....
Just to touch a bit on the background of this piece.....we found it at the regional flea market in Vienna. What a stunning bargain.......we never thought we could grab such a valuable artpiece at an unbelievable price!!!
Look at those BEAUTIFUL keys. Hit them.....feel them....and you could feel they are robust and you will recognise immediately that this machine required lots of genius efforts before it became an amazing office equiptment. Non-dependant on electricity, I think we should use it presently in view of our recent energy crisis. Ribbons are reusable and charming.
Oh....those good ol' days.....Oma is constantly in my Mum's mind while she reminisced about the times when Oma worked in OUB as a typist. Indeed, old stuff like this will always remind us of history and the people we know.
