Erika 10 - Typewriter - 1930-1940

This old Mercedes brand typewriter, manufactured by the renowned German firm Mercedes Büromaschinen-Werke A.G. in Zella-Mehlis in Thüringen, proves that the name is synonymous with robustness, even without four wheels. This portable "Prima" version, elegantly mounted on its original wooden base, is in excellent condition. Its glossy black frame highlights a full AZERTY layout with beautiful round, encircled keys, showing only minor, time-appropriate signs of wear due to its age. For those who love the tactile feel of mechanical writing and want to trade their emails for the charm of the ink ribbon, it is fully functional. Measuring 33 cm in length, 31 cm in width, and 16 cm in height with a weight of 6200 g, it makes for a very fine collectible or decorative piece bearing German industrial history. Please note that its original carrying case is more worn and aged, but it still provides authentic historical protection.
