This 1960 Brown Erika Model 10 Typewriter is for sale. The typewriter is serviced and features Pica type face, 10 cpi.
It types OK, as my preference is still for the Olympias. Ha, ha! Am I trying to sell this thing?
Well, you usually ask my opinion. And I give opinions freely whether you really want it. I spout a lot of opinion along with a bunch of word salad. Almost a bad as onion breath.
This typewriter actually types fine and puts very nice print on the page. Erika typewriters, like the Hermes models, have a certain “cachet“.
Comes with a carrying case. Oh. Talk about belts and suspenders. That damn case. To get the typewriter off the base you first remove two long screws from the bottom, on the outside. Then you pop the lid and there are two hidden latches you push. Well, you push the latches and have to lift the machine off the base at the same time. While the feet are held in place by four posts. Damn Erika engineers; over thinkers they are.
Holy crap. Am I in a mood or what.
Otherwise, nice typewriter.
