1975 Royal (Triumph-Adler) Gabriele 2000 Serial # 20035520 1975 Royal (Triumph-Adler) Gabriele 2000 typewriter, Serial # 20035520 Javier Vazquez del Olmo's 1975 Royal (Triumph-Adler) Gabriele 2000 typewriter. 2023-02-28 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Javier Vazquez del Olmo: 1975 Royal (Triumph-Adler) Gabriele 2000 Serial # 20035520 I had to spent quite a while with this one until it more or less worked. This typewriter needed a cleanup, and apart from some minos adjustments I could make I havenĀ“t been able to make the return key work. I have to jump to the next line manually, by rolling and pushing the platen.

But anyway, I still like it. As I said, electric typebar typewriters have something (mostly the touch), and IĀ“m still trying to make this one work at 100%, even if itĀ“s not the best machine on the world (and part of the universe).

The first typewriter I saw was my grandpa´s Olivetti Linea 98 at the office. It was just a curio for me. Then I was given a Nakajima, which I didn´t use and my grandfather took it from me because it was easier to handle than the bulky Linea 98. Now I own that typewriter, and I started a little collection in Valladolid, Spain. The Nakajima, which is "my" typewriter only returned home in 2017, almost 20 years later, when he wanted a better typewriter.

A collection that started small grew into something bigger, a nuisace for my family and a great source of satisfaction for me.
