Cursive Hermes Baby Rocket Manual Portable Typewriter - Ready to type !

Description

Professionally refurbished - cleaned, serviced, and adjusted to factory specs -
Perhaps 1 in 100 of the Baby/Rocket Hermes typewriters have cursive type slugs, they are scarce! This beauty has been cleaned, serviced, and adjusted to factory specs. The feed rollers have been cleaned or replaced as necessary and any worn or damaged parts were repaired or replaced. The typewriter body has 100% original color from the factory and the machine has been thoroughly tested and a brand new 2-color black and red cotton ribbon is freshly installed. All this work guarantees you years of trouble-free operation. The machine inside has been lovingly used and cared for as you can see in the pictures. I'd rate it cosmetically a 9+ on a 10 scale - almost a collector's item and a workhorse that is ready to serve another 50 years of duty. The iconic Baby Hermes has nicely rounded corners and a nifty lid that snaps down over the machine onto a base upon which the typewriter sits. The hard case is in very good condition with only a few scuffs and scrapes and dings, you can see in the pictures 50 years worth of care, the machine inside has been lovingly used but not abused - it is exceptionally clean! The Serial number for this machine is #9211524, included are the manual, a new urethane typing pad and a fresh replacement ribbon.
