Are you from Switzerland?<br />It would be the only, unique reason which most of your typewriters have the QWERTZ keyboard. It also would mean "Du sprichst die Deutsche Sprache"...xDRobin Heilschild 【蓋面】https://www.blogger.com/profile/03429820251341371094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021475418975786274.post-13269716737324246322012-06-10T08:50:04.504+02:002012-06-10T08:50:04.504+02:00Hi, I just discovered this site as I was Googling ...Hi, I just discovered this site as I was Googling Orange Hermes Baby Typewriters.<br /><br />I am curious. Mine looks just like yours, and it has the same typeface. I've never known what it was called.<br /><br />On the back of my machine it indicates it was made in Germany, so I am curious where your machine was made.<br /><br />I collect typewriters, but primarily because I am always in Davehttp://www.lifecoach.wsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021475418975786274.post-90493531220843207152011-08-13T19:15:52.505+02:002011-08-13T19:15:52.505+02:00I love your blog.

(:<br /><br />I think that Swissa might satisfy my desire for a "can't find in the US without paying outrageous prices on ebay" machine, and my desire for a robot-font machine all at once. Plus it's an exotic that will show well at our Phoenix Type-ins, and I know that nobody else here in our localTedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16774432656602082311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021475418975786274.post-84393212186811159872011-08-02T07:30:20.026+02:002011-08-02T07:30:20.026+02:00@LFP: I haven't come across a techno Olympia y...@LFP: I haven't come across a techno Olympia yet, but the typeface looks lovely on your blog and Strikethru's.

Might one inquire how many greenbacks would convince you to "dispatch" it to the American desert? I ask although I'm aware that shipping alone would be well beyond my normal typewriter budget, however I'm compelled to ask because it is quite a special little machine, and might warrant an exception.

And ho...Love that color! And the poster is great.<br /><br />And hooray for techno week! I admit I prefer Olympia's narrower take on the typeface, though that may just be because it's the one I'm most familiar with. But the Hermes version is so open and friendly!Elizabeth H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09161162407130146871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021475418975786274.post-51943540496129644422011-08-01T22:31:16.713+02:002011-08-01T22:31:16.713+02:00Wow, the swiss cross is great.
