1968 Erika 42 Serial # 4340896 1968 Erika 42 typewriter, Serial # 4340896 Jacob Peacock's 1968 Erika 42 typewriter. 2026-09-12 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Jacob Peacock: 1968 Erika 42 Serial # 4340896 This machine is an Erika rebadge. It is under CBM and seems to be just like my Erika Mod 42. Its tabulator seems to jam and the outer plastic was damaged because goodwill can't secure it to its case. It works well and the plastic is being super glued back together. This is a PICA machine.

I just collect typewriters and adding machines. I like to work on them and get them up and running again.
