Typewriter Talk / (NLR) WTB: Facit "ADDO" Typewriter

**Posted by Pete E.** 19-6-2021 18:37:41

Looking to buy a nice-condition Facit-made typewriter badged as "ADDO". Made in Sweden.

See photo attached of the machine I am looking for. With or without a case if fine.

Must be a QWERTY keyboard, however.

There are more recent ADDO machines made in Japan. But not interested in those.

Post can be closed. Thank you.

I have located a nice ADDO and it will join my collection in the near future.

Remember the Star Trek episode "The Trouble with Tribbles?."

Mike,

Sorry that I missed your posting...

Your Facit-man is in such perfect shape and I love the personality of his face !

Hey no problemo. My wife adopted that one and I had to buy another. Thought about you when I saw a large one, like 14" tall, for sale recently. Pete will want that! I would have snagged it for you but the cost was outrageous.

Wives do that, don't they...?

I too thought I did not need that larger Facit man at such a price.

Plus the little ones can sleep in the cases with the machines.

Too bad those little magnet feet don't stick to the Facit's aluminum top. Mine rides on my desktop.
