Description:
Found in a secondhand shop. Types good, smooth and not hard.
DARO is a real GDR acronym from the office/data-processing world, but on Erika machines it seems to function more as a period branding or ideological label than as an actual model name or technical feature.
Has a QWERTY keyboard with the ij and Ć (Dutch Guilder) key.
Typeface: Elite

I'm Arieke and I started collecting typewriters in 2025. I'm from the Netherlands, a cat lady and a beginner typewriter hoarder.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Erika 34 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Erika Serial Number page and the Erika 34 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
