Typewriter, 1963 Hermes Baby

£445.00 GBP

This Hermes Baby typewriter was made in Switzerland in 1963 and is in a wonderful pale pastel green colour, mint green keys, space bar and carriage knobs. The ribbon spools are accessed by the two " gull winged " covers that fold back. Hermes typewriters were designed and made in Switzerland by Paillard before production moved to France and then to Brazil. Hermes Baby models were originally the smallest typewriters on the market and enjoyed a loyal following. This is in full working order and types well. It has the standard elite sized typeface with 12 letters to the inch. 

This typewriter has been professionally cleaned, serviced, adjusted and tested and has had new feet fitted. It is in full working order and is fitted with a new top quality American made ribbon so its all ready for you to start typing on.

We can supply Group 9 and Universal typewriter ribbons from £9.95 each including postage. Available in plain black and a range of other plain colour options on Universal spools. 

It is in a very good general condition with just a few very small marks. It has the Hermes Baby logo on the front left side and manufacturers details on the back. 

It comes with a matching pale green metal carry case lid with a slide out handle. The case is also in a very good condition with just a few small marks. 

The typewriter measures 29 cm by 30 cm by 6.5 cm high. If you want a smaller portable typewriter in a fabulous colour that doesn't take up too much desk space this is a great option. We include a photo copy of an original instruction booklet which shows the features and has many handy tips such as how to change the ribbon.

"My Olivetti arrived a couple days ago. Got a chance to test it out and it works like a dream (you wouldn’t guess it was nearly half a century old). Thank you for including the original metal spools, it adds a great touch to the machine. Looking forward to adding another typewriter to the collection sometime soon..." - Jake
