GERMAN SS-KEYED TYPEWRITER WITH CASE

Third Reich-era typewriter, approx. 11 x 11.5 x 4.5 in., a "Mercedes Selekta" model, manufactured by Mercedes Buromaschinen-Werke A.-G from Mehlis. The top row of keys features various runic symbols, including an "SS" runes key on the "shift" case over tenth key. The typewriter appears to function normally, and all keys, including the "SS" runes, shift key, and the space bar, are operable. The fine machine is accompanied with a black wood case, which appears original to the typewriter and bears a black, faux leather cover, and additionally accompanied by an original "Mercedes" branded cleaning brush and tweezers. Very good condition. These typewriters are rare to find, as nearly all were either reworked after the war with the "SS" key replaced, or the machine was simply destroyed.
