Description from the seller

I hereby auction two beautiful typewriters from the German quality manufacturers Triumph & Rheinmetall. These Rococo-style typewriters from the 1920s–1930s are in a very well-kept condition compared with other typewriters of the same era, and they include an original, unopened ribbon for the Triumph among the machines. The Rheinmetall typewriter was used in the VEB Betrieb der Warnowwerft Rostock, and I have no precise historical background or information on the Triumph’s area of use.
The two machines have a net weight of approximately 30 kg, which corresponds to about 15 kg per machine.
These machines are highly sought-after collectibles all over the country; in this condition they could even be display pieces.
Old German craftsmanship, where quality was not just a word, but where you still got something for your money—built and tuned for several lifetimes.
