AEG Mignon typewriter, with its key, in good condition. This very old typewriter, from the 1920s/1930s, is vert original as it doesn’t have a keyboard. Its principle is based on a mechanism that translates the position you put on the stylus on. These movements cause a cylinder engraved with characters, which then hits an inked ribbon to type on paper and write the letter or the requested number. This machine was designed for the firm AEG in Germany in 1913. It had many advantages, it was smaller and lighter than a machine with a keyboard, and in particular, it had the possibility to easily change the font by just replacing the character sleeve. The machine is in working condition, but the ink ribbon is dry. A key closes the case. So, if you’re really looking for a very original and rare typewriter, this Mignon machine will delight you.
