Hermes Rocket Portable Typewriter Green Swiss Paillard Vintage & Case WORKING

Description

Fully working vintage Hermès Rocket portable typewriter in an attractive olive green finish with mint green keys. Manufactured in Switzerland by Paillard S.A., Yverdon, this classic mid-century machine is known for its smooth typing action, compact design, and reliable engineering.

The typewriter has been tested and is fully functional mechanically. It will require a new 13mm (½") universal twin spool typewriter ribbon, as the current ribbon is dry/faded due to age. Replacement ribbons are widely available and inexpensive.

This example shows visible signs of age and cosmetic wear consistent with its vintage nature, adding to its authentic character. Keys, carriage movement, and mechanical functions operate as intended.

A highly collectible and practical piece, ideal for writers, collectors, display, or retro office décor. The Hermès Rocket is the European version of the Hermès Baby and is regarded as one of the finest portable typewriters of its era.

Please review all photos carefully to assess condition.
