Antique typewriter Erika Naumann – 1940
I am selling an authentic German typewriter Erika, model by Seidel & Naumann – Dresden, with original Cyrillic keyboard, imported to Bulgaria around 1940. The machine was owned by my grandfather – one of the first lawyers in the Kazanlak region. He actively used it not only in the 40s and 50s but also until around 1995.

Working! The mechanism is intact.
There is an ink ribbon that moves from both sides on metal rollers. When a key is pressed, the ink is printed onto the sheet.
The lower leather cover is partially loose and worn, but the construction is stable when placed on a table.
The metal parts and symbols are authentic and well-preserved.
Collector's value – a rare specimen with Bulgarian history
With engraved factory inscriptions and marks from the official importer for Bulgaria. “Importer: Central Cooperative Union – Sofia”.
