A superb example of this iconic Swiss portable, manufactured in 1965 with original seafoam green paintwork and light green keytops. The machine has been fully serviced in our workshop with a new ribbon fitted, and writes beautifully with a nice clear 'Director Pica typeface', which is rarer to find on a Hermes, giving you 10 characters to the inch. It is a lovely typewriter to use with it's nice light touch to the keyboard, and being the earlier model has the classic rounded styling to the casings. It has the original clip on carry case with key, original Hermes cleaning brushes, and the original user instructions. Nowadays this model is highly sought after due to it's superb design, and the actor Tom Hanks who is an avid collector of over 250 typewriters says this is his most favourite model.
One of the best examples of this famous model we have had in stock.
Replacement ribbons for this machine are available to order on our website. (Group 9 )
