| TYPO MODEL A Tilman Elster collection Serial number 7914. The manufacturer's emblem is on the frame, on the right; the full name is also on the paper table of the machine. |
| TYPO MODEL B Tilman Elster collection Serial number 11088; built about 1919. While the design might seem antiquated by this period, the machine was a fully workable piece and was successful in Europe long after such machines had essentially disappeared in the USA. |
